🎶 **KRE8 JAMZ IS BACK — OCTOBER 9TH** 🎶

Mark it, tell your people, clear your night.

We’re opening the night with a **live album performance from STL’s own Kristopher Lay**. Then **Ourfriends** takes the stage with original music plus covers spanning Michael Jackson to Amy Winehouse (and everything in between).

But the music is only half the story. We’re transforming Kre8 into a **psychedelic third space** — leave the outside world at the door. Here you’re human. Here you’re home. Warm lighting, immersive set design, and a room built for you to fall into and just *be*.

This isn’t just a show — it’s a vibe, a community, an experience you’ll be talking about long after the lights come up.

**🔥 Rock out. Connect. Cultivate community. 🔥**

📍 Kre8Place
🎟️ Presale: $10 | At the door: $20

“Wild at Heart” OUT NOW ❤️‍🔥
On All Streaming Platforms
(SoundCloud & BandCamp MONDAY)

I’m a lil emotional today, so much going on In life and the world, but I’m way too excited for this release. My life is so much different then when I first started making music. A lot of things that needed to be said and energy to release. This is my start in structure with my songwriting and vocal performances ❤️‍🔥Thank you to whoever taps in. It’s something for everyone on this record tbh lol. Love my bookies and I appreciate whoever appreciates me! My motto from here on out! lol ❤️‍🔥

Go listen and let me know if A or B side is your favorite 🙏🏽😩!

xoxo - Kris 💋
