Our Story

The idea behind Orange Soda is to bring back the feelings that shaped us into who we are. Parties in high school and college were full of life lessons, and for the Bern & Friends team, that era was in the early to mid 2000s. At this time, Hip Hop was going through a major shift, with the rise of southern music, the various record label runs (Roc-A-Fella, Cash Money, etc), and with Napster and Bearshare making music more accessible. This is the #NeoNostalgia we feel when we hear The Diplomats or Lil Jon, and we're dedicating a night strictly to this era. Come have some Orange Soda with us!

Neo Nostalgia - a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the recent past (the last 10-15 years), typically for a time-period or place with happy personal associations

This isn’t the “stand-around-and-look-cool” party that you’re used to. This is big kick it, dance and sweat, have a good time vibes that resonate with anyone that has ever been to a college party.
