meet the lineup
Sussie Ramirez (she/her) better known as Suxxy Puxxy is a promoter, manager and DJ from Monterrey, Nuevo León. Suxxy (like her friends call her) started working in the underground party scene in Monterrey. Helped produce events with local artist focused in bringing international talent in town. That's how she met Peligrosa the Austin multidisciplinary Latin collective. She started to work with them by planning a tour around California in summer 2018 and then working in a series of releases for Discos Peligrosa which lead her to leave her hometown and move to Texas. Peligrosa members took her hand to start a new journey of her life which was the beginning of her Djing.
Between a mix of her melancholy of missing home and her passion for reggaeton, she started to throw Perreo parties, but what really set her aside was her way of mixing. After the pandemic, she officially launched Perreo Club, an inclusive Latinx party based in Texas celebrating the culture of Reggaeton & Perreo.
Poniboy is a Perreo Club DJ and nightlife artist, living and working in Austin, Texas.
HOT, TEXAS SUMMER is a testament to the multidisciplinary and multidimensional roots of Texas art.
