CoSM Celestial Celebrations Explained:
Equinox and Solstice celebrations at CoSM honor polarities and the alignment of the earth with the sun, crests and troughs in the wave of time -- the longest and shortest days and nights of the year and the two days of balance and equivalence. When we notice the passing of the days, the months, the years, we contemplate impermanence, raising our awareness to the preciousness of life in the here and now.
At CoSM, Celestial Celebrations begin with spoken wisdom on a worthy topic. After the talk and discussion, the audience breaks. Then, look forward to some of the best electronic music, down tempo music, ecstatic dance, a fire circle, and fire spinning. Meet Alex and Allyson and enjoy live painting from a showcase of visionary artists.
Acrobats, belly dancers, projections on Entheon, tarot readers, palmists, face painters, group sand mandalas have all been part of the rich tapestry, the transformative tableau of uplifting offerings at CoSM Celestial Celebrations.
Entheon, the Grey House, and the Mushroom Cafe will be open.
Your Hosts: Alex Grey & Allyson Grey

Live Music:
TRIPP ST.
Seemingly materializing out of thin air, anonymous producer and DJ under the moniker
Tripp St. has taken the electronic scene by storm at an alarmingly quick pace. Making a
grand entrance with a plethora of all original mixtapes, he immediately commanded
attention by the masses through his unique integration of deep freeform bass and
apparent boom bap influences.
Although a newcomer in identity, the enigmatic alias of Tripp St. does not lack in
experience. Having an extensive background attributed to hip hop production and studio
engineering, he plucks elements of genres he loves, showcasing his ability to create
and fine tune an entirely new range of sound. Paying homage to his roots in every
sense imaginable, he brandishes the name Tripp St. from the street he grew up on.
Since his widespread emergence, Tripp St. has refused to stray from the pulse of the
modern bass community. Working in tandem with industry leader CloZee herself, his
freshman album singlehandedly marked the debut release on her independent record
label, Odyzey Music. Paired with a nationwide tour and a slew of major market
appearances under his belt, Tripp. St has already positioned himself to becoming one of
the most highly anticipated acts in dance music.

MAXFIELD
Maxfield’s repertoire covers a wide range of energy levels, grooves, and emotional landscapes, blending acoustic instrumentation with mechanical sound design. He started his musical journey in his youth with drums and guitar, and then went on to study guitar and electronic music production at Berklee College of Music. Although his music can be described as sound-design-centric, his instrumental roots heavily influence his approach to composition, and shine through his electronic works through funky basslines and bold melodies. He draws inspiration not only from dance floor energy and underground subculture, but also genre-diverse music history.
Recent Shows / Fests: Ogden Theater, Bogart House, Wortham Theater, Submersion Festival, Secret Dreams Festival, T&F Suwannee, Meow Wolf - Denver + more
Artist Pairings: Tipper, Tripp St., Spoonbill, Koan Sound, Resonant Language + more.

An audiophile through and through, he is also the owner and operator behind Hi-Vi Sound System. Currently residing in Asheville, North Carolina, Tunic flies the flag of soundsystem culture high throughout the East coast.
