The venue announced the news on Instagram last week, confirming the first set of residencies: Josey Rebelle, Tasha, Fadi Mohem, and Elke. “Welcome to Open Ground’s first four resident DJs who embody the spirit of the club,” they said.
“Committed to originality, independence and expanding horizons. We invite you to join them with an open mind and share a great experience of soundsystem music in an inclusive, respectful club environment.”
