ART TODAY 09.01.17: TGIF! Happy hour Cocktails from the “Craft Cocktails series” by Joe Rocco plus the Fluffer and Nutter video

Sounds and the City 09.01.2017 “The Weekend” by Sizzy Rocket

The track’s visions of snowy Manhattan roof tops and faded red solo cups evoke the cross-coastal memory of love on the weekend.
