Longtime DC-based favorites Thievery Corporation will be headlining their very own outdoor concert this weekend at Fairgrounds. Known for their fusion of groovy downtempo electronica and soulful, jazzy sounds, they will be joined by an all-star lineup of funky, hip, cool, worldly and eclectic artists.

The event runs all day. To keep folks happy, there will be a ton of local food trucks and drink options. For some extra comfort, splurge on a VIP ticket, which offers a sweet view that overlooks the entire venue.

Thievery Corporation has its origins at Eighteenth Street Lounge, where members Rob Garza and Eric Hilton met back in 1995. They have since together released seven studio albums, over a dozen compilations, and a slew of singles on their label, ESL Records. Together they’ve toured the world but Washington, DC, still remains home!

Panorama Productions, Club Glow & Partners Present…
echostage washington dc

(Washington, DC) – Effective September 3, 2012, an investment group headed by Panorama Productions and Club Glow will take over operations of the DC Star nightclub/concert venue. The space is located on Queens Chapel Road near the corner of New York Ave and Bladensburg Road NE.

It will undergo a multi-phase construction schedule over the course of several months. Cosmetic, technical and structural changes will transform it to a state of the art concert venue: Echostage.

Through music, design and technology, ownership will provide fans with a unique audio/visual concert experience.

Echostage will have the ability to host any large-scale, indoor concert production. Panorama’s ‘Club Glow’ Saturday events will move to the new location.

“We’re excited to finally bring a concert venue of this size to DC. To the fans – please bear with us. We’re modifying the space as fast as possible. Experience the amazing transformation from a nightclub to the largest concert venue in the Nation’s Capital.”

- Antonis Karagounis, Panorama Productions/Glow

“Dance music has grown to the point where we can do massive line-ups on a regular basis. This venue has been the missing link. Artists, agents, management, major promoters; everyone we’ve talked to is excited to give fans the epic shows and concerts they deserve.”

- Pete Kalamoutsos, Panorama Productions/Glow

“Washington, DC has not had a large-scale, dedicated concert venue in many years. As a lifelong resident, I’m proud that Panorama Productions is responsible for bringing a venue of this size to the DC-area.”

- Jimmy Marmaras, Panorama Productions/Glow

echostage washington dc logoThe first concert at Echostage will be a Glow event featuring Dutch DJs Sander van Doorn and Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano on September 22.

Future dates will include dance, rock and any production requiring a large-scale, dedicated concert venue.

A complete listing of Glow Fall events will be announced on Friday August 24, 2012.
