Live Performance: KIRBY
We're thrilled to welcome KIRBY to the Facing Race stage for a special live performance! A powerhouse singer, songwriter, and storyteller, KIRBY is known for her soul-stirring vocals, genre-blending sound, and unapologetic celebration of Black identity, culture, and self-expression.
With music that embodies authenticity, empowerment, and soul, KIRBY is bringing her incredible artistry to Raleigh for a performance you won't want to miss!
On the Decks: Boogie Lov | The Mood Changer. The Sonic Bender.
Hailing from the Free State of Maryland, Boogie Lov is more than a DJ, she's a mood changer, an energy shifter, and a sonic architect!
Rooted in the evolution of House, Hip-Hop, R&B, Trap, and the sounds that have shaped generations since the early '80s, Boogie Lov seamlessly blends genres, eras, and cultures into a sound uniquely her own.
Her approach to music goes beyond mixing records. It's about creating emotion, shifting energy, and taking audiences on a sonic journey they didn't know they needed.
With an undeniable presence behind the decks, Boogie Lov transforms rooms, ignites dance floors, and creates experiences that linger long after the music stops!
Come For the Community. Stay For the Celebration!
Get ready for bangin' sounds, incredible live music, and plenty of opportunities to hit the dance floor and celebrate with the Facing Race community.
There’s no additional cost to attend! Just bring your conference badge, your dancing shoes, and your best energy.
Because our movement is rooted in resistance, powered by solidarity, and fueled by JOY!
