to the Roof of Superior Ingredients on November 23rd. The pace of Ranger Trucco's rise in the house music scene is impressive, as his career took a turn in 2020 when Space Yacht booked him for the Tech My House virtual tour. What’s even more notable is that he’s from Traverse City, Michigan—hardly known for its nightlife and house music scene.

Over the past few years, Ranger Trucco has performed at major festivals and clubs across the country. His sets at events like Experts Only, Hard Fest, Splash House, Hangout Fest, and Electric Forest—the latter being a full-circle moment for him, as it was one of the festivals that ignited his love for house music—have made him a standout name on any lineup. Additionally, he has played at iconic venues such as The Shrine, Sound LA, and Club Space, gaining a loyal following with his groovy sets.

With Ranger’s long resume of playing some of the biggest shows around the country, it’s no surprise he launched his own event series,

, and has been throwing parties across the U.S. The brand is fairly new, with fewer than ten shows so far in cities like Miami, New Orleans, Denver, and Tempe. Now, he’s ready to add Brooklyn to the list—and what better venue to do it at than the Roof of Superior Ingredients?

In addition to performing, Ranger has released music on well-known labels such as Spinnin' Deep, MicroHertz, and 

 Off The Grid Records. To maintain his artistic freedom, he also launched his own label, 

 This label serves as a platform for Trucco to release music that reflects his sound and vision. It has become a home for his music and other exciting talents, including

Doubleheader

Gray Area is pioneering the "Doubleheader" event series, drawing inspiration from back-to-back baseball games to showcase artists with similar styles but unique fan bases. By having one artist follow another and culminating in a collaborative back-to-back (B2B) set, Doubleheader aims to create a powerful platform for musical discovery and cross-pollination. Embracing the "B2B" spirit, the initiative seeks to introduce audiences to new sounds while strengthening the dance music ecosystem.
