July 21st: Masha Mar

Masha Mar is a Serbian-born, LA-based DJ, producer, and event curator/promoter currently making waves from each corner of her creative triangle. As a versatile DJ, she's comfortable behind the decks on festival stages as well as at the club, and her steadfast devotion to independent radio is exhibited through her residencies on both NTS & Dublab.
