Louisahhh!!! is Coming Home for HARD Summer

Louisahhh!!! stands out for a lot of reasons. Firstly, her name is an exclamation!!! Secondly, she's one of the few Yankees on the Bromance roster, and might just be the only person on the label without some form of finely groomed facial hair. She's also been part of the HARD family since the very beginning.

"I actually played the first HARD [in 2007] as Staccato, my duo with Gina Turner," she tells THUMP. "I remember we played in this crazy rave tunnel at The Shrine. It was one of my first parties of that magnitude, and it felt like the beginning of something totally crazy. I don't think anyone could have predicted it would go this far, though."

Although Louisahhh!!! was once Bromance's unofficial L.A. ambassador, she emigrated to join her skinny-jeaned clansmen in France in 2013. This weekend actually presents something of a homecoming for her.

"I'm coming home a few days before HARD for my mom's birthday, so that is pretty special. I plan on hanging out with family and friends, eating like, so much kale, going mountain running, spending time with my horse [in South Pasadena]. There is never enough time for all of it; I'm prematurely anxious and I haven't even gotten there yet."

By the time HARD begins, Louisa will have nothing to be anxious about as her mom and her horse aren't the only special creatures she's in town to see. "So many friends and heroes are playing! Audien and Tiga are definitely a priority," she gushes. "Juan Maclean, Brillstein, Danny Daze, Jimmy Edgar, 2ManyDJs, Kastle, of course Bromance boss Brodinski… this is like summer camp. I hope everyone I love shows up at the same time so we can drink artisanal coffee together or bask in the sick beats or whatever."

A note to Louisahhh!!!'s homies: Show up early. The DJ says she maxes out after about four hours. "I don't drink or do drugs, so I get bored pretty easily," she laughs. "To entertain myself, I plan on stealing a golf cart and putting as many friends on it as possible and doing donuts around the backstage area until everybody but me falls off."

Really?

"Just kidding. I will probably like, read Game of Thrones and meditate or some hippy bullshit."
