DowneTowne [April] Downe Girl of the Month - Ms Angel





My favorite memory of DJ Ms Angel, Malia Lyons, was from last year, when the DowneTowne parties were still at E&O Trading Company. There was a song my friends were obsessed with, after hearing it a DowneTowne party before, but they had no idea what it was called. In fact, they only remembered about four notes from the song itself and alcohol consumption probably effected the actual melody.



I went up to…

Then during guitar driven songs like “Use Somebody” by Kings of Leon, you can really hear their rock roots.



Years ago, before I was introduced to Kara or Mel, I saw them perform at the Wave. I… Continue
