Desert Hearts Returns to NYC with Legendary Lineup at Knockdown Center – [READ]

Mikey Lion and Friends Return to NYC for a Colorful Desert Hearts Extravaganza at Queens’ Knockdown Center.

House music’s favorite West Coast brand has made their journey back East for a highly-anticipated performance at Knockdown Center in Queens. For five years, this dusty collective has captured the hearts of all who have been touched by their magical glow. With an unmatched take on dance music, Desert Hearts has created an immersive and inclusive environment for all involved.

The self-entitled “globe-trotting party brigade” began it’s journey in November of 2012, when founding fathers Mikey Lion, Lee Reynolds, Porkchop, Marbs, & Kristoff McKay, dreamed that they could create a caravan for music lovers, with the goal to host shows across the world. Since then, their group of like-minded individuals has grown substantially, reaching all those with a deep love for house and techno.

In 2014, the producers launched Desert Hearts records with the goal of adding more incredible talent to their roster. In addition to the label originals, the label has seen releases from the oh-so-talented Andreas Henneberg, Latmun, The Glitz, jozif, TÅCHES, Dance Spirit, Fritz Carlton, Kevin Anderson, and RYBO.

This inclusive brand plans their big return to the city that never sleeps this Friday, hosted at the epic Knockdown Center in Queens. This evening will see Desert Hearts mainstays Mikey Lion, Lee Reynolds, Marbs, Porky + Special Guest Francesca Lombardo take the stage for a B2B phenomena of dance and fun.

During the pandemic, Knockdown faced the unfortunate reality of forced temporary closure, but with the return of music and live events, these mystic ruins have returned to their former glory. The queens hotspot first came to life in 1903 as a glass factory that later transformed into a producer of “Knock Down” door frames. Now this art and culture institution delivers one of a kind experiences for New York’s finest party-goers.

Tickets are limited for Friday’s Desert Hearts party, so make sure to grab yours HERE before they sell out!
