Crucial Times Fest raised over $2,000 for immigrant and refugee aid, gathering bands willing and ready to condemn ICE on camera. Artists from It’s A Setup to Iabsorbyourstatic and Portland’s Lab Rat filled the room with energy, snd spoke to the importance of community. A highlight of the bill was Downcast from Goleta, CA, who formed in the 80’s and reunited in 2015 after about a 10 year hiatus. “We felt it was time to get back out there and express ourselves a little bit more politically,” lead vocalist Kevin told us.

Community and solidarity were in no short supply at Crucial Times Fest, where bands turned up to take a stand against fascism and use their platforms for good.

Spokane-based It’s A Setup’s frontman Hayes Noble took time during their set to address the dangerous precedent of the Spokane 3 Verdict. “In these tighter-knit communities, they’re able to pick us apart from the top down,” he told us. “It’s hard to be a punk in mid-sized cities in America,” said Brett Noble of the event’s host 221 Press. “It’s these second cities and smaller towns where punk rock is always in its truest form,” Hayes adds. “You can do this anywhere, and you should do it everywhere.”

Following the Spokane 3 verdict, which saw anti-ICE protestors convicted of federal conspiracy, the city’s hardcore music scene turned out to Crucial Times festival. Organized by 221 Press, the event brought together bands from as far away as California, and helped raise over $2,000 for Spokane-based groups providing aid for immigrants and refugees.

Crucial Times Fest kicks off tonight @theguardianspokane

It’ll be an awesome weekend full of great music and good hangs. We play Saturday evening, but it would mean a lot if you checked out the whole fest. All proceeds will go towards a local organization here in Spokane that helps secure legal aid for immigrants.

In a world where everything feels like it’s falling apart, this community stands its ground.

This isn’t the type of thing you want to miss. Be there.
