If Oski Gonzalez<\/a> had a motto, it might be: \u201cThink Big. Be Louder.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hot on the heels of his Brewtality Metal Festival <\/a>at Lincoln\u2019s Beard Brewing Company \u2014 which featured 14 local metal bands on two stages \u2014 the promoter and DJ returns in collaboration with Queen of the Scene for the Miamipalooza Music & Art Festival, which is set to unleash more than 25 local bands across three stages at Churchill\u2019s Pub<\/a> this Saturday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Miamipalooza Music & Art Festival showcases the diversity of our local original music scene across genres ranging from rock, singer-songwriters, and metal<\/a> to hip-hop<\/a>, EDM, and more,\u201d Gonzalez tells New Times. \u201cIt is a celebration of local talent you won\u2019t want to miss.\u201d<\/p>\n

Participating acts include Voodoo Monk Waffle Shop, Echo Chant, Maximum Friction, Scattered Light, Limb Breaker, Mike & the Bikers, Kidd Zero, BullyPussy, DJ Ben Hop, Dirty Nasty Rotters, Sol Nomada, and many more.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMiamipalooza is a sample of the diversity our local music scene has to offer,\u201d Queen of the Scene writes on Instagram<\/a>. \u201cMiamipalooza is for the locals, by the locals! \u2026 This marks our 4th Miamipalooza \u2014 alongside our two Largopalooza events in the Keys. We\u2019re thrilled to finally be back at Churchill\u2019s Pub! Our last show here was just before the world changed in February 2020 \u2014 it\u2019s been way too long, and we\u2019re ready to make up for lost time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Indeed, it was not long ago that it was an open question whether Churchill\u2019s \u2014 AKA, the \u201cCBGB of the South\u201d \u2014 would ever reopen in the aftermath of its COVID-forced closure. But last September, the storied venue came roaring back from the dead. \u201cSince 1979, the iconic dive bar and venue has been ground zero for everything punk, metal, noise, and alternative,\u201d New Times Music Editor Flor Franceschetti wrote at the time<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s long been a haven for those who exist outside the shiny mainstream of pop.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Miamipalooza is a perfect example of how extensive the underground community is \u2014 and how necessary and consequential that haven truly is.\u00a0<\/p>\n
