There’s an air of artistic freedom that permeates around the 900 Block of Dunedin’s Douglas Avenue, and a lot of it has to do with the independent spirit of Dunedin Brewery a music-friendly microbrewery that opened its own warehouse stage next door (The Moon Tower).

An eclectic lineup of lyrical rappers, including Grammy-nominated New Orleans export Alfred Banks, will tap into that energy for a show where costumes are 100% encouraged.

Tickets to see Hallowed Hive, Alfred Banks, and more at Moontower at Dunedin Brewery in Dunedin on Saturday, Oct. 24 are still available and start at $15.
