Spinning a vibrant mix of chicha\, cumbia\, Latin psych\, and surf rock\, her set pulses with rhythm and nostalgia. A beloved Bay Area selector and member of Chulita Vinyl Club\, Lizzy’s sound transforms the Amphitheater into a joyful dance space with deep roots and irresistible fall grooves. \n\n\n\nFriday Nights at OMCA also offer a well-rounded gallery experience with Gallery Chats.
