This Memorial Day Weekend, make a note in your calendar with big exclamation points and the name ‘

’ in bold! Powell Aguirre, aka Surf Mesa, has quickly risen to superstardom in the dance music scene. From Seattle, this young artist has developed a sound that's both nostalgic and forward-thinking, which explains his 2x-Platinum hit "ily (i love you baby)" and the skyrocketing 12 billion streams on his releases.


Surf Mesa is marking his territory in the scene with epic sets at major events like GoodVibe Fest in Malaysia and Lollapalooza. For a taste of the magic he brings live, feast your ears on his CRSSD set from last year and witness the rise of a genuine house music sensation!

Currently sweeping through the nation, Surf Mesa is hitting up the most iconic venues - from the mind-blowing energy of MGM Music Hall to the legendary vibes of Red Rocks, and the scenic allure of Wonderfront Festival. Watching his journey from the intimate beginnings of bedroom DJing in 2017 to commanding the biggest stages across the globe is nothing short of inspiring for music aficionados everywhere!

The Seattle native's musical journey began in childhood, influenced by a diverse array of artists, from The Killers and Coldplay to David Bowie and Prince. He honed his skills through hours of self-taught production on FL Studio, sharing tracks on SoundCloud and laid the foundation for his future success.

Come True

The release of his debut EP "Come True" under the esteemed Astralwerks label marked a significant chapter in Surf Mesa's career. This release showcases his ability to collaborate with a variety of artists, including Whethan, WILHELM, and SUPER-Hi, creating a sound that's uniquely his own.

Beyond dropping one banger after another and lighting up stages with unbelievable performances, Surf Mesa has also unleashed a collection of visually stunning music videos. Dive into his Instagram for a quirky glimpse into the creative process behind his music with his “Come With Me To Find Inspiration” videos. Even Forbes has given a nod to his undeniable talent!

Joining the party is special guest Tres Mortimer! With Polish roots and a residency in Chicago, Tres brings a unique flavor as an artist. He has releases on major labels like Mad Decent, Dim Mak, and Ministry of Sound, and is the head honcho of his own imprint, Optic Records. Tres is quickly rising in the industry, and interestingly, most of his Spotify listeners hail from LA and New York—two cities deeply entrenched in music culture. Some of his upcoming gigs include Seth Troxler's show in Barcelona, Arc Music Festival, and Warehouse 215 in Phoenix, where he'll perform alongside Gorgon City, Bastian Bux, and many other exciting names!

Warming up the party for us is Eyezic, who has Peruvian blood but is based in Washington D.C. He's currently riding a wave of success with over 3 million Spotify streams on his recently remixed track "Lighthouse." Eyezic is also headlining his first show in his hometown, called 

. We love seeing the new generation making big moves!

Lighthouse - Eyezic Remix

We're over the moon to have another Washington D.C. resident, who everyone refers to as "the boy" and who is an absolute character and a phenomenal artist. With releases on Dim Mak Records and as the boss behind his own imprint and party event brand "Higher Viiibrations," his presence is electric. Just taking a look at his Instagram page is a trip—you can tell he's full of life. Currently on his own "Summer of Love"  tour, we're excited to have him stop in Brooklyn and put on a show!

Got A Lot - Radio Edit

Set against the breathtaking city skyline, 74 Wythe Ave, The Roof of S-I, serves as the ideal stage for Surf Mesa to unveil his eclectic mix of sounds. With its remarkable views, it's the ultimate setting for an artist of his caliber to shine.

We're buzzing with anticipation and look forward to seeing you on the dance floor!
