MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – The Middletown Art Center invites the public to immerse themselves in a world of sound and rhythm Saturday, Jan. 27, from 7 to 10 p.m. at the “Shakedown” dance event.

Mind-bending, body-shaking music will be performed by The Echo Conspiracy. DJ Nic will keep the dance floor moving with a blend of deep and dynamic grooves.

The Echo Conspiracy is an electronic dance band that combines live musicians with slamming electronic beats and heavy bass.  

The sounds from the live musicians are spontaneously recorded and transformed into new sounds, rhythms and textures that become entwined with the electronic elements.

This Saturday’s performance will feature Shane Powers on trumpet with Heather Kipnis providing vocals and lyrical guidance. Frank Frazza of The Higher Logic Project will be playing guitar. Beats and treatments by Brian Ward.

MAC is located at 21456 Highway 175 at the junction of Highway 29 in Middletown. Cover charge is $5. No host bar onsite.
