Mission Statement

Our mission is to build a real, sustainable music community in the South Suburbs of Illinois — a place where hip-hop, rock, punk, and alternative artists can perform, connect, and grow without being boxed into one genre or pushed out of mainstream spaces.

Through this residency, The K.R.A aims to create a safe, inclusive, and high-energy environment where fans and artists alike can experience music that is honest, rebellious, emotional, fun, and powerful. We believe that underground culture deserves real stages, real sound systems, and real respect — and that community-driven spaces are how scenes are born.

Whether you come for the message of The K.R.A or the chaos of Bar Fights, Lustful Nights, this residency exists to give people a place to belong, express themselves, and celebrate the music that moves them.

Event amenities include:

• Smoke-friendly environment
• BYOB for 21+ nights
• Vape-friendly for 18+ nights
• Free parking
• Two bathrooms
• Food vendor at every event

The first four events are free with RSVP. After that, tickets will be $30 per event to support performers, production, and the growth of the scene.

Artists who want to perform can apply using the submission form provided for each event.
