Binki Shapiro and Adam Green
We’re SO close to Midsummer. Like, three days away close. And as any good party host would do, we’re making sure every detail is perfect for the big day–like taste testing the cocktails to make sure they're perfect for you (we swear). So far, it looks like we’re getting everything in place for a picture-perfect Midsummer fete come Friday. We almost can't believe it's really happening.
One of the most important aspects of party planning we’ve learned is that the people you hang out with are equally as important as the delicious cocktails you serve. So we’ve put extra thought into this year’s hosts to ensure that we haven’t talked up Midsummer without backing it up. This year we’ll have the folks from one of our favorite Swedish-centric sites, The Swede Beat, hosting our party. A few months ago we got to know the editor-in-chief and founder, Lydia Kellam, and since then we’ve been attached at the virtual hip. Cocktail, fashion, and music-loving Swedes really do stick together. Along with The Swede Beat, we’ll have a live performance by the stylish duo Binki Shapiro and Adam Green, more music to be continued by The Misshapes, Zara Zachrisson (also known as our FOK Lykke Li’s sister–music runs in the family!), May Kwok, and Swedish songstress Victoria Bergsman. We've always been told that the best things in life are worth waiting for, and luckily for us, we don’t have very long to go. See you Friday at The Yard.
