Boogie Nights

Where to get your groove on all week long

Posted

The city is bustling with rhythmic opportunities for audible preferences of every kind, Monday through Sunday. Hustle, hop, jump and jive with seven nights of two-step.

Warm up at Aurora’s Motown Mondays (276 Westminster Street), featuring live funk and soul music from 8 to 10pm, or save yourself for Escada’s (39 Putnam Pike, Johnston. 233-0007) DJ A.Dub every Tuesday at 8:30. Modern rock lovers, stick around – local band The Complaints play their retro-throwback hits every Wednesday at Escada, followed by solo artists on Thursdays and full bands on Saturdays and Sundays.

Head bangers and punk rockers rejoice. Dusk Lounge (301 Harris Avenue. 714-0444) is open seven nights a week with realdeal underground acts. With attentive bartenders to replenish you after every head bang, it’s no surprise locals refer to this dark, yet sophisticated lounge as one of PVD’s best-kept secrets.

Just a short drive down to Richmond Street will send you back into the ‘90s at The Village’s Throwback Thursdays (373 Richmond Street. 228-7222), featuring your favorite retro hits and Old Skool Music. Stop by on a Friday for the rotating guest DJ or bop to live music on Saturdays, but rest assured the massive sound style and club lights won’t fail to impress.

Should you choose to go all out with DJ Phenomenon at Hanley’s (52 Pine Street. 861-0001) on Monday, be sure to save some spice for Roxy’s Latin Saturdays (79 Washington Street. 831-7699). Samba with resident DJ Kabeza at a reduced rate before 10pm, so long as you’re properly dressed.
