Sunday, October 4, 2026, 9:00 PM - 2:00 AM · Friends and Lovers, South Brooklyn, New York City
All-female, all-vinyl cumbia lineup featuring Loly Roots, Dayan, La Lin, and Steph Zonia, with a cumbia class taught by CoolMarx and The Kumbia Experience from 6 to 7pm. Ticketed event running 5-10pm at Friends and Lovers.
Friends and Lovers splits cleanly in two. Bar up front, and a back room that flips between DJs, live sets, and comedy depending on the night. It’s cash only, and the crowd comes prepared, especially once things shift to the back. You can hang at the bar, but the real move is following the noise and seeing where it lands.
Mezcal, Campari, sweet vermouth. Their most distinctive $12 cocktail
Rye, dry vermouth, lemon, grenadine, a Prohibition-era throwback
Fruity, strong, perfect for the dance floor crowd
