Music belongs to everyone. Free live music shows, open mics, and a stage for local musicians in Bryan & the Brazos Valley.

POSTS STORIES REELS

Where it all began 🎸

On May 16, more than 500 of you came out to downtown Bryan for the North by North Main Street Music Festival, our first-ever free community music fest.

60+ local musicians
10 local bands
10 local singer-songwriters
$0 tickets, $0 cover

Every artist on that stage calls the Brazos Valley home. That day was our first real passion project, and it’s the reason Tilted Fuzz Collective is becoming a nonprofit: to keep live music free, pay local artists fairly, and bring music and art to the next generation.

Thank you to every musician, volunteer, @blackwaterbrew , and every single one of you who showed up. This is only the beginning 🤘

Were doing it again on October 31, follow along for updates!
