Proceeds from Blast! [5] fund the sound. series which this year includes our first-ever free concert event. SASSAS is excited to be working with the musician and DJ collective dublab on “Tonalism,” presented as a part of “Glow,” a dusk-to-dawn festival sponsored by the City of Santa Monica.

Join us this summer for live sets from Albert Ortega, Steve Roden, Unrecognizable Now and White Rainbow plus dublab djs and video projections by Jessica Bronson, Cal Crawford and Jennifer West among others in the historic Looff Hippodrome carousel building on the Santa Monica Pier.

And this Sunday, spend the afternoon sipping campari and enjoying great food and music while making “Tonalism” and other fun SASSAS events possible.
