Description

Live @ the Lot is a monthly live music series featuring local Milwaukee musicians with a range of tunes! Catch your favorite Milwaukee musicians this summer at the hottest new outdoor venue in town: The East Side Art Lot! Once an underutilized parking lot, the space is now filled with local art in the form of painted tables, murals, and now music! On the last Thursday of every month from June through September, Live @ the Lot brings you local music in a fun and inspiring atmosphere. Your $10 ticket gets you one drink (beer, wine, or hard seltzer) in addition to a live performance from 6:00-8:00pm. Custom-painted picnic tables are available for reserved seating for an additional $30, and come with a gift card to a local restaurant and a pair of Koss headphones. As there are only 10 reservable tables, those spots will go fast! Plan to reserve in advance, otherwise we recommend that you BYOS (Bring Your Own Seat!). Dancing will also be highly encouraged. July's Live @ the Lot performance will feature local musician Marielle Allschwang. Marielle Allschwang—songwriter, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and member of some of Milwaukee’s finest ensembles (Collections of Colonies of Bees, Hello Death)—sits at the center of the band she has named The Visitations, where she "[commands] the stage with hushed intensity" while, together, her formidable ensemble “[make the past 20+ years of Milwaukee post-rock] thunder and glisten” (Evan Rytlewski, Shepherd Express). At times gentle and beautiful, at others brutal and terrifying, “Allschwang’s voice seems familiar: it’s a timeless instrument, full of sadness, beauty, and independence, rooted in the fertile ground of Americana but twisted into the wilding sky of the avant-garde” (Matt Wild, Milwaukee Record). Come jam with us and add your voices to the harmonies! See you at the Lot. The East Side BID promotes the
