SUMMARY:Car-O-Ween
DESCRIPTION:Car-o-ween is taking over Pearl Street Warehouse for a Hallow
 een night spotlighting all-female and nonbinary-fronted bands and artist
 s from the local music scene. Costumes are highly encouraged\, with a co
 stume contest happening throughout the night. This marks the first-ever 
 live show hosted by local DC music blogger @carosplaylists\, bringing th
 e platform’s mission of championing emerging artists and creating a welc
 oming music community to the stage. A portion of ticket sales will be go
 ing to Girl's Rock DC! Historically Close Friends writes the kind of son
 gs yo u’d send to your favorite people. Blending hook-filled indie pop w
 ith sharp humor\, unbridled sapphic joy\, and emotionally direct songwri
 ting\, the Washington\, D.C. five-piece celebrates deep friendships\, me
 ssy feelings\, and believing the people you love deserve the world. The 
 lineup spans four women in their late 20s and early 30s alongside a keyb
 oardist who’s been in the game a bit longer. That mix of perspectives fu
 els an unusually collaborative writing process where every member shapes
  the music\, resulting in songs that range from loving with absolute aba
 ndon to fiercely backing up a friend in a bad spot. For Historically Clo
 se Friends\, the music is an extension of their actual friendship\, whet
 her they’re on a band camping trip or dissecting their favorite covers\,
  the group is as tight-knit as their musical sound. So\, join this ever-
 growing circle of friends\, grab a custom laser-engraved dog tag from Ra
 ndy’s craft workshop\, and see why the Washington Post notes this band a
 s a must-see. Baltimore-based artist Enslow writes the kind of indie pop
  that feels equally at home on a festival stage or blasting from a car w
 ith the windows down. Anchored by sharp songwriting\, soaring vocals\, a
 nd a sound that blends shimmering pop\, indie rock\, electronic textures
 \, and the warmth of '70s songwriting\, her music balances polished prod
 uction with emotional honesty. Backed by a powerhouse band\, Enslow has 
 become one of the Mid-Atlantic's most compelling live acts\, earning Bes
 t Band in Baltimore from Baltimore Magazine and recognition as a Top She
 lf Artist in NPR's 2026 Tiny Desk Contest. Her music has also been featu
 red by NPR World Cafe and remains in regular rotation on 89.7 WTMD. Whet
 her on record or on stage\, Enslow delivers hook-driven songs with the e
 nergy of a full-band rock show and the intimacy of a songwriter who neve
 r loses sight of the story. Bluebelt is a 6 piece indie alternative band
 \, blending wide ranging influences into a sound that feels fresh\, yet 
 familiar. Their debut single\, "Sonar\," was released on streaming platf
 orms on Halloween 2025 and has amassed nearly 10\,000 plays on Spotify. 
 The band seeks inspiration from groups like Peach Pit\, Geese\, Blondshe
 ll\, Big Thief\, and Flipturn. They’re known for playing high energy set
 s to crowds of hundreds at outdoor festivals\, intimate venues\, and hou
 se shows. Bluebelt formed in early 2025 through high school and college 
 friendships Eric Becker (keys)\, Ethan Frantz (guitar)\, and Josh Mehr (
 drums)\, plus the grapevine of the DC music scene\, Holly Teeters (vocal
 s)\, Brett Mundy (guitar)\, and West Donnelly (bass). They started jammi
 ng together in Josh’s sunroom-turned-bedroom\, where they found immediat
 e creative chemistry with an audience forming quickly thereafter. nina1a
 m (they/them) is a queer Vietnamese-American singer-songwriter from the 
 DMV. Inspired by the constant ebb and flow of nature and the human condi
 tion\, nina1am focuses on creating lush soundscapes for melodies and sto
 ries to take root. Layering diverse sonic influences and vocal chops\, n
 ina1am writes songs illustrating the complex relationship between social
  identity\, self reflection\, and desire.\n\nMore info: https://www.unio
