Atash@SaharaLounge

Get ready for a full-on global groove marathon as Atash brings their high-energy world music to Sahara Lounge for a special late-night set on May 22, 2026 at 8:30 pm.

• Atash at 8:30 pm – A powerhouse Austin ensemble known for fusing Middle Eastern melodies, Indian classical vibes, Latin rhythms, jazz, and rock into a swirling, ecstatic sound. Their live shows are legendary for turning the dance floor into one big, joyful, moving crowd.

• Paula Maya Bossa Nova at 7:00 pm – Ease into the evening with smooth Brazilian bossa nova and jazz-infused grooves. It is the perfect warm-up for what is about to turn into a serious dance night.

• Caravan Strange at 10:30 pm – Keep the energy high with genre-blurring global sounds that lean into psychedelic textures and driving rhythms. Expect unexpected twists, inventive arrangements, and plenty of beats to move to.

• System Positif at 12:00 am – Close out the night with a deep, hypnotic wave of Afro-influenced, rootsy, and dub-leaning grooves designed for late-night dancers who are not ready to go home.

This Worldbeat Extravaganza is built for people who love to dance, discover new sounds, and soak up a truly eclectic mix of cultures in one place. Start early with lush bossa nova, ride the peak of the night with Atash’s expansive world orchestra, then glide into psychedelic and global fusion textures that carry you all the way past midnight.

Come as you are, wear something you can really move in, and plan to stay for the full journey. It is the kind of night where you meet new friends on the dance floor, forget what time it is, and walk out feeling like you just traveled around the world without ever leaving the club.
