@video_dave is coming to Churning Man 4. 📹 There’s no way to write about Video Dave without it sounding like a fever dream. He’s a multi-hyphenate artist who pops up all over the world touring with acts like Serengeti, Armand Hammer, R.A.P. Ferreira, and Open Mike Eagle. He’s 1/3rd of Previous Industries, the first rap group signed to Merge Records, and has songs with AJJ, Method Man, Dessa, and Hannibal Buress. His fast-paced and colorful live show includes a fully synced video presentation, jokes, and even raffles of his hand-sewn hats.
Churning Man started as a silly, sweaty birthday party. Now it’s a community. What keeps us churning? Each other 💛🧈💛👬👭👫
@frankhurricane is on the bill. 🌀⚡ As we all sit by the fire, he’s going to take us on a wild Appalachian journey you’re never going to expect. Frank Hurricane is a spiritual blues and folk musician/storyteller located in North Carolina. He has been traveling and performing in the underground and DIY scene for well over a decade, gathering tales and touring across the world. Frank’s extensive back catalog has been released by labels like Feeding Tube, Ultra Eczema, Mystra, and Scissor Tail, amongst others. PBS recently made an Emmy-Nominated documentary about his musical journey. He has performed with many legends across the spiritual board and has hiked thousands of miles of trails in the mountains.
We’re SOOOO excited to have the holy Frank Hurricane at this year’s mystical Churn!
Happy weekend y’all :)
COULD THIS BE YOU?! We’re looking for artists to bring their talent and art to our venue. All artists will receive a free pass in exchange for their work. DM or email us with any questions you might have. Bonus points if you plan on using upcycled materials!
Meet @mahzetar 🪬 One of our favorite artists and people on the planet. We’re so excited to have him back to this year’s Churn. Māh Ze Tār is propelled by the vision of fusing traditional eastern music with modern electronic composition as a form of cultural preservation. Each Māh Ze Tār set is uniquely dynamic where the listener can expect to hear the ancient sounds of the Sitar and Oud in one song and the timeless melodies of the Ney and Duduk in the next — bringing a kaleidoscope of emotions through the wide plethora of ancient sounds, mesmerizing vocals, and hypnotic beats.
Churners have your back 👋🤝 Churning Man 4 is 10 weeks away. Have you snagged your ticket?!?
First one out of the 🧈 churn: @big____sis — the breakout brother-sister duo from Liverpool, amassing a cult following around their tongue-in-cheek electro-pop bangers a la Charli XCX, Sofi Tukker, and Cobrah - while simultaneously eliciting a nostalgia for first wave euro pop. B.o.B., Oliver Tree, Chet Faker, Cupcakke, Reggie Watts, Geordie Kieffer, and The English Beat are just a few who have shared the stage with BIG SIS. You may know them already from their viral sensation “I took the drugs and the drugs are working.”
The Churn is proudly run by the Butter Board, a team of best friends volunteering their time to show you that a Butter World is possible 🧈🌎❤️🔥
Can’t you feel the buttery n’ bubbly whimsy?
