At El Bar, Cristo Disco and Mannie Fresh bring a Southern ratchet set for Cash Money Fridays once a month. Kemit’s Kickin’ up Dust at the Sound Table is for the house music heads every second Saturday. If dancing to ’50s and ’60s rock ’n’ roll, soul, and girl groups is your bag, Keep on Movin’ lands at the Basement once a month.
