Event Spotlight: Hale Bob

Hale Bob dresses women in feminine, chic clothing that transforms the woman who wears it. Known for its prints, bright colors and quality materials and fabrication, Hale Bob clothing captures the attitude of style and fashion of the women who wear it. Hale Bob’s creator, Daniel Bohbot, started his work in Paris immersing himself in the art, music and film of the city and developing a style and viewpoint that combined the world of pop culture with the world of couture. During a 2001 visit to Los Angeles, Daniel realized that the “City of Angels” was the place to launch the designs that would quickly make his clothes, must-have fashion for Hollywood’s celebrity clientele and for taste makers worldwide. Salma Hayek, Halle Berry, Heidi Klum and Eva Longoria are just a few of the fans who have come to love the look and experience of Hale Bob.

Event Spotlight: Fire in the Hamptons

Fire In The Hamptons, the brainchild of writer/producer/vocalist Zack Arnett, is a band whose incomparable sound lies somewhere within the folds of electro-pop and indie rock. The group’s synth-infused standout tracks, “Stargazer,” “Humanimal,” and “Children of the Sun,” evoke an 80’s dance beat nostalgia with hints of a laidback California flavor. Often compared to New Order and Passion Pit, Fire in the Hamptons strives to take its music beyond the realm of electro-pop and towards a direction where the band can express their creativity through storytelling. Their full-length debut album “F.I.T.H.,” mastered by Grammy-award winning engineer Brad Blackwood, has had tracks featured on notable TV shows including “Gossip Girl” and “Jersey Shore.” Fire in the Hamptons has built a significant underground following by performing at venues such as LA’s indie music festival “Echo Park Rising,” and opening for the artists Samantha Ronson and Youngblood Hawke. With Aaron Bilyeu on drums, Ian Dowd on guitar, Emvy Venti on synth/piano, and Arnett as the bands frontman and vocalist, Fire in the Hamptons will without a doubt ignite the stage at Project Ethos.
