Richard Hill presents " Finding Your Family with DNA Testing"

Whether you call it “Fate”, “Destiny”, “A Gift” or “A Calling”, the fact is that some people are just born to sing and create music. DENI has been performing and writing music for over 12 years. She has performed at numerous venues in Atlanta and Nashville as a cover artist. She has an extensive catalog of original music, and has participated in many writer's events at venues such Eddie's Attic, Red Clay Theatre, and the Writer's in the Round series at Truck and Tap Alpharetta. She has performed at festivals such as Chalktoberfest in Marietta, Arts in the Heart of Augusta, and the Rhododendron festival in Mentone, Alabama.
DENI's unique style, soulful and hard-hitting, could be best described as Pop R&amp;B, and she incorporates both piano and guitar into her repertoire. Musically reminiscent of Adele, Carole King or John Legend, her actual sound is totally individual and distinct. She is best known for her hard hitting, crystal clear and wide ranging vocals combined with intensely poetic and personal lyrics. Her music is surprisingly mature, incredibly passionate and most importantly heart felt and authentic.
Her new single "Soul Cry" in collaboration with Producer G Fresh and independent music label Kirkwell Partners LLC was released November 25, 2022. The accompanying video is scheduled for release Dec 9, 2022. Her second single "Too Close" dropped March 31, 2023. Her music can be found on most streaming platforms. She is currently in the recording studio with plans to release her first Solo EP early summer 2023.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/142299/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets</a> &amp; More info

Oscura

An indie dance party for the ones who still romanticize a scratched iPod, American Spirits, and a blurry night soundtracked by bloghouse and post-punk revival. All Your Friends is at Oscura on 12 June 2026, bringing the sweat, synths, and nostalgia of the early 2010’s house party.
This is your basement-floor flashback to tight jeans, smudged eyeliner, and nights that felt like a house show turned afterparty. Expect a high-energy dance floor fueled by indie sleaze classics and remixes you forgot you loved, from LCD Soundsystem and The Rapture to Foals, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio, MGMT, Crystal Castles, and more. No frills, just bodies in motion.
Whether you never left the Lower East Side or just miss the chaos of that era, All Your Friends is a night dedicated to bad decisions, blown speakers, and the soundtrack of your favorite forgotten memories. Come ready for the sweat, the noise, and the party your Tumblr warned you about at Oscura.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/145872/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View&nbsp;Tickets &amp; More&nbsp;Info</a>

Welcome to Emo Night Brooklyn, a late-night, DJ-driven dance party blasting the best emo and pop punk jams that raised us, ruined us, and somehow still define us. We’re taking over Oscura in Bradenton on 27 June 2026 for a night of screaming every word, moshing with strangers, and feeling absolutely everything. This is not a quiet night out. Expect wall-to-wall emo and pop punk anthems, deep cuts, and songs you still know by heart even if you pretend you’ve “moved on.” From the tracks that got you through your worst years to the ones that still hit a little too hard, Emo Night Brooklyn is all about losing your voice, finding your people, and reliving the music that made us who we are. And yeah sometimes special guests and your favorite artists even jump in to join the chaos. Come ready to scream, mosh, dance, cry in the corner (no judgment), and throw yourself into the pit with all your favorite people. Tell the DJs what you want to hear and we promise we listen better than your ex. It’s loud, it’s emotional, and it’s the kind of night that reminds you it was never just a phase. So get ready, Bradenton. Lace up your boots, warm up your vocal cords, and meet us in the pit at Oscura on 27 June 2026. Emo Night Brooklyn is calling — and yes, we need every soul.
