A free mini music festival put on by three White Center businesses featuring 7 bands is coming to that community Aug. 18. The set times for the bands will be staggered, allowing people to take in range of music the organizers say includes rock/jazz/pop/psychedelic/and punk.

They are seeking to promote neighboring businesses like Zippy's Giant Burgers, Proletariat Pizza, Uncle Mike's BBQ, and Big Al Brewery. A Rat City Roller Girls bout at Southgate Roller Rink, though not affiliated with the event is happening the same night.

A suggested donation of $5 will get you a wrist band that is good for happy hour drink prices at each venue all night.

Exclusive, limited edition t-shirts, created by graphic design legend and local rock luminary, Nat Damm (Akimbo, Sandrider), are available for pre-order at:
