ABOUT MICHELLE MANETTI (she/her)
Michelle Manetti is a musical jack of all trades; DJ, Vocalist, Music Blogger and promoter with a BA in Music Production, she eats music for breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight snacks. She first took to the decks back in Brighton in the early 00s while at Uni, quickly picking up residencies and guest sets at some of the best clubs and parties in town. Most notorious for her regular appearances on the queer girls scene. She's graced the decks at some of the scene's finest such as: Candy Bar, OPP, Wish, Mannequin, Mint, Club Lesley, Twat Boutique, Goldsnap, Dick & Fanny, SHE bar + more. As well being a fave of our Fèmmme Fraîche regulars, she's also a regular at our FF home at Dalston Superstore, Adonis, Berlin's Tresor and much more besides. With a keen persuasion for retro beats, jackin grooves and vibey melodies, she's sure to get you fired up on the dancefloor.

ABOUT LEXX (they/them)
LEXX whips the finest Reggaeton, Afrobeat, Dancehall, House and Drum & Bass into sets that sweat and reset. She will throw you into the deep end and you will love it. LEXX's dance floor is a space for those of you who know there's more to life. A sexy space where gender gets bent and all beings are held in love. A space where you can dance freely to meet your struggle and release it all. Come get it.
