It's been 20 years since the first house shows started at Old 228, and 228 Productions is commemorating the occasion with a special anniversary event featuring three acts who've been playing for us almost as long: Frozen Smoke, Elissa Janelle Velveteen, and The National Bird!Plus, we'll have a raffle table of pieces donated by local artists; ticket and raffle sales from this show benefit local community outreach group Better Days Ahead!
(Lineup in order of play:)
THE NATIONAL BIRD makes a "surprise" follow-up appearance after last month -- but we couldn't leave our favorite garage-rockers out for this show. Frontguy Blanko Dave might even remember that he played the first-ever 228 house party jam!

"Perpetual opener" ELISSA JANELLE VELVETEEN claws her way further into the lineup for once! We can't say enough good things about EJV and her various projects over the years, so we'll let her music do the talkin'.

FROZEN SMOKE is the prog-hip-hop trio of MCs Kryciss and Oversoul, fortified by the beats of producer Waterbrother, spittin' the classics and the latest from the new "Life Happens" EP!
