Music news Coming soon: Roxy Cottontail
Posted by Mosi Reeves on Wed, Feb 6, 2008 at 10:55 PM
As everyone knows, CL published several stories on Sloppy Seconds in 2007, including my controversial column in the Dec. 26 issue. Those stories often ran with the above photograph.
Take a close look. Standing up in the top center of the photo is Caleb Gauge, the impresario behind Sloppy Seconds. Kelly B., his former business partner, is sitting to Caleb's left. To his right is Ian Ford, another former business partner who now throws cool events such as the Art of Partying. However, the blond girl sitting in the center below Caleb has nothing to do with Sloppy Seconds.
Her name is Roxy Cottontail. She's not from Atlanta, but New York. She's the subject of countless articles in your favorite tastemaker glossies, and currently graces the cover of URB magazine. The last time Roxy appeared here was at a Sloppy Seconds party in late 2006, and she absolutely killed it on the decks. She also promotes a lot of cool parties, has her own fashion line and even writes her own songs. Although I think her songs are kinda wack (sorry, gotta be honest), they add to her mystique as an arbiter of style.
Anyway, Roxy will return to Atlanta for the February edition of Sloppy Seconds on Saturday, Feb. 16. She'll be joined by local kids DJ Klever, Rob Wonder and Hollyweerd.
