Get to Know Local Bands at the KPFT Electroluv Fest

September 19, 2016 12:01 pm

It's the era of the music festival, so you shouldn't be surprised to find that there's a fest right outside your doorstep, the KPFT Electroluv Fest. September 23rd through the 25th, the KPFT Electroluv Fest brings some of the trendiest local bands to Last Concert Cafe on Nance Street.

The fest consists of a pre-party, a post-party, and, of course, the main event. The pre- and post-parties play host to two or three bands, and admission is only $10 per event. But you probably won't want to miss the big concert on Saturday, September 24th from noon to 1 a.m. It showcases the musical stylings of Tres Equis, Nameless Horses, Graveltooth, and other rock bands, so it's worth the $25 for a general admission ticket. All of the concerts unfold in the warm Houston air at Last Concert Cafe's outdoor stage.

KPFT Electroluv Fest
When: Sept. 23 – 25
