Big Lux
Our #Solidarity open mic is right around the corner, next Tuesday to be exact! Can't wait to see a wonderful audience and amazing artists. If you cant wait another week, here is a video of one of our favorite veteran performers, Kevin Lowther, aka Big Lux. He totally crushed his performance as the #resist open mic last month and hopefully we get to see more him at our next one.
BH
#Resist was glad to see a veteran performer make an appearance at the last open mic. He was an active performer at SubDrift a few years ago before moving out of the district, but we were lucky enough to have him stop by and perform for an amazing audience and event.

Thank you for coming out, being engaged, cheering on all our performers, listening to our stories and being all-around awesome.
