Washington DC's Debuting [size=150][b]JOINT CHIEFS[/b][/size] present the inaugural [size=150][b]"ALL KILLER NO FILLER"[/b][/size] Event at LIV Nightclub on October 1st
Washington, DC is widely considered by the entertainment universe as being "up next." In an attempt to be forward thinking and proactive in presenting DC in it's best light to the eyes that gaze upon the city, three disparate yet related entities have joined forces to create the JOINT CHIEFS, a strongly organized event planning, event covering, and event coordinating unit. Consisting of Winston Ford of The Couch Sessions (thecouchsessions.com), Sonya Collins of The Glass House (theglasshousedc.com) and freelance journalist Marcus Dowling of True Genius Requires Insanity (tgrionline.com) and a plethora of networked sites, the Joint Chiefs are a production, journalism, marketing and promotional team extraordinaire, combining the nation's leading urban alternative website (The Couch Sessions), alongside Washington, DC's newest and well respected urban culture repository (The Glass House), and the nation's newest and fastest rising music journalist (Dowling). On October 1st, the Joint Chiefs unify for the first of many times for "ALL KILLER NO FILLER."
"ALL KILLER NO FILLER" is being presented as an immediate destination event by the reputation of the guest artists alone. The inaugural event on October 1st is a prime example of what we intend to bring to DC's burgeoning and exciting party scene. "ALL KILLER NO FILLER" is a monthly event curated for the purpose of uniting the urban and alternative dance and social communities, in the face of shifting musical tastes that allow for there to be significant stylistic similarities and crossovers between the individuals in both areas, bringing young (18+) and old, and bridging gaps through music.
The lineup for the initial event is not just an obvious invitation to have a good time, it is indicative of the thematic goal of the event, the cultural and musical blend of style, beauty and substance we look to create.

RA the MC (Strange Music)
Dope emcee. Fashion Icon. Photographer. One of the brightest new stars from the rising to the top DC area, RA the MC is a talent not to be missed. Recently a nominated finalist for the MTV VMA's best DC Breakout Artist, Ra is a confident, charismatic and uber talented artist whose talents more than speaks for itself. Our performing headliner at the inaugural "ALL KILLER NO FILLER," it's oh so important to get in on the ground floor with the Judah produced rapper who has collaborated with the likes of Mick Boogie on mixtapes, and who releases her "Trending Topic" Twitter mixtape on October 6th!

NACEY & STARKS (Nouveau Riche)
Nacey and Steve Starks are the truth. Whether holding it down at the Nouveau Riche monthly at DC9 on the 4th Saturday of the month with Gavin Holland, or throwing down scintillating mixes at Bmore's legendary My Crew Be Unruly party this July, Nacey and Starks make dancefloor magic happen.
Nacey's the ultra smooth, southern hip hop and Bmore club lover with one of the broader selective tastes in the city. Nationally, and internationally, his tracks were most recently dropped Girl Talk, and he's a winner of a remix contest for Diplo's (producer of MIA's Paper Planes) Mad Decent Records. Into the internet? He's favored by Discobelle, Sheena Beaston and the most noted of tastemakers.
Steve Starks is presently Dave Nada's favorite DJ. Not enough to convince you? Well, Starks' bass heavy and deep club explorations are phenomenal and have gained international favor. He's a DJ's DJ, a man with a populist flair and a phenomenal ear for booty shaking jams.

TREVOR MARTIN (Sneakers in the Club/Real Talk)
One of the most underrated yet seasoned selectors in the city, Trevor Martin's musical mirth making abilities know no bounds. Equally as equipped to rock Top 40 to mainstream hip hop, old school, Philly Club, Miami Bass, and even sometimes harkening back to his hardcore roots, Trevor Martin, as his mixtapes always state is "Rock'n Bamaz"...hard.
-----
CAM JUS
DJ Cam Jus is one of DC's more inventive selectors. Always forward thinking, he creates the remixes and blends that you knew would make sense, but didn't realize could ever be done.
