Empire State of Mind
- This event has passed.
An exclusive event for New Yorkers… and international friends, LA haters, and essentially anyone that has an opinion about New York. Which is everyone. Tonight, we invite you to drink martinis, name drop, talk about your favorite new performance artist, complain about the trivial, not complain about the essential, talk about how you made out with James Franco once in a dive on the Bowery, and generally process the differences between the center of the universe and the landlocked, cowtown you now call home. We might serve food past 9pm. It might be Nathan’s hot dogs. It might be quick slices. Who really knows what will happen in this crazy city, after all?
Attire: Black.
List: You’re already on it, but that doesn’t matter. You will still have to wait outside the red rope being ignored by a man named Bear for 3-5 minutes before your confidence is shot and an outer, protective, hard shell has formed around your feelings. Then, you will be granted the honor of entering.

A native of New York and a newcomer to the Denver music scene, Soul Atomic (a.k.a Will Evans) takes a funk first approach to blending music, taking audiences everywhere on a ride across the dance floor! Time and again he gets your hips shaking, bodies grooving and booties bumping all night long. From festivals to house parties, his ability to excite and entertain creates fans & friends everywhere he plays.
Since his start in Brooklyn in 2003, he’s built a following through his long running radio series the Soul Atomic Radio show (2003 – 2013), which began at East Village Radio in NYC and finished at KOTO Telluride in Colorado. Soul Atomic has since turned his attention to supporting touring acts throughout Colorado and the underground music scene across the US.
His sets run the gambit between Funk, Soul, Hip Hop and all things House. With his crowd first song selection and dance floor insights, Soul Atomic has defined his own brand of feel good music for any vibe. From vinyl to digital, there is no place left untouched with his sound and selection. With his signature smile and presence on stage, he brings fun and excitement to every show.
