Moesha 13 Plays Sunset Carnavale

MOESHA 13 is an multihyphenate artist from Marseille, whose music fuses techno and Afro, Kuduro and Baile Funk, under the concept of “gadjicore”.

Moesha 13 is the female persona of Shaun that they use as a stage character. Focused on creating pop and experimental musical landscapes, their work is marked by “enjaillement” – a term from Ivory Coast refering to amusment and festivity –  activism and performance.  

An underground icon of the international club scene, they sing, mix, and produce music, exploring a large variety of influences, from empowering rap lyrics, modern dancehall to dancefloor aesthetic. They want to create a highly personal and incandescent hybrid work of art.

Sunset Carnavale is a dance party set in an immersive environment showcasing the art of Fabian Williams aka Occasional Superstar.

Internationally known DJ/Producer, Salah Ananse has curated an experience that will celebrate not only the rich history of art & music found in Atlanta, but also the mixture of African & African American culture unique to Atlanta’s Lakewood Community.

Ali Events At Lakewood is one of Atlanta’s most unique new event venues. The venue has permanently installed projection mapping equipment that allows the walls of the room to be transformed into unique environments. Sunset Carnavale will use this technology to create an immersive and interactive art experience featuring live music, art, dancers, deejays & performance artists. Attendees will be completely immersed in the work of Fabian Williams AKA Occasional Superstar.
