NEON REVERB is a music festival in Las Vegas, NV, created and organized by local, independent promoters, on a not-for-profit basis, simply for the love of music. Our idea is to produce a new twice-annual event (happening every March and September) that helps galvanize Downtown Las Vegas as the center of a thriving and growing music scene. We hope both to build more community among local promoters, venues, and musicians, and to help highlight Las Vegas as a place where bands from around the country (and around the world) should come and play.
THE NEON REVERB MUSIC FESTIVAL WILL BE RETURNING TO LAS VEGAS SEPT. 17-20, 2009!
Here’s a little promo video talking about it. The complete line up is on the Neon Reverb Facebook Page, but I’ve pasted it in below the fold.
