Both performances blew my expectations out of the water - the ecstatic energy Inji brought to the stage flowed throughout the audience who returned it right back to her. Singing, dancing, laughing, yelling, and everything in-between flooded

A love letter to Sunburn
Dominic Fike ’s music first found me when I was 16. I am now 21 and my love and appreciation for him and his art still continues to grow.
