Wrapping up this series of medical benefits for our pal-in-the-scene Kristen Maggio, we here at 228 Productions are proud to offer one last blowout show upstairs at the Rec Room in Phoenixville for this cause... Hopefully opening the floor for other friends in the scene to take up the torch, and help make more dents in that mountain of medical bills!

This evening's lineup includes performances by ska-punk connoisseurs THE MANIPULATORS, instrumental rock pals GEODE, the long-awaited return of Soundbank fave songwriter PAINTCAN, and a (slightly) sober version of guest emcees THE BOOZE BROTHERS!

To recap: Local business owner, artist, and longtime pal KRS was hit with a one-two combo a few months back -- cardiac arrest and a brain tumor. With both procedures in the rearview, her friends in the scene have organized a series of benefits to offset her looming medical costs, with this being the third show (following 3/2 & 4/19). In addition to the tunes, we'll have a guestbook for friends and well-wishers to record their positive vibes within for KRS to enjoy on her long road to recovery.

Wonderland: http://www.scotsilvermusic.com/Wonderland/

Wonderland is a tribute band for all of those bygone acts that will never get a tribute band. In fact, it’s been described as the Anti-Tribute Band. Call it what you want, Wonderland celebrates those acts from the golden ages of pop, funk, and rock and roll —the 70’s and 80’s— that were here today, gone tomorrow. They captured lightning in a bottle and, just as soon as they arrived, seemed to disappear again. You may not know whatever happened to Tommy Tutone, Bow Wow Wow, The Knack or Golden Earring, but you can still enjoy their music through Wonderland.

Gypsy Convoy is a collection of battle-tested musicians that have collectively earned their stripes sweating it out in bars and honky tonks across the state for decades.

5 musicians covering modern/progressive rock, alternative, blues & pop - Southeastern PA

Aquatic Ape Theory came to fruition as an experimental basement party band based out of Philadelphia, PA. They only have one clear goal and that is to take their electrifying presence and crunchy slam band sound out for one hell of a spin. That being said, hop on or get out of the way because there is nothing stopping this ship of miscreants from taking your ears for a ride.

An Americana roots-music outfit that pulls from traditional genres to blur the lines of modern music. "Frontman Jeff Selby with a revolving cast of musicians have distilled the multi-genre sounds of a beachfront music festival into a remarkably cohesive live set, with hints of bluegrass, folk, and rock in a style that would be pigeonholed as “jam” if the songwriting wasn’t so explicitly pop-oriented" says Dave Fox of MUSIC WITHOUT LABELS.

Be Kind Rewind:

Hey PA! We're Be Kind Rewind, a new cover band here in the Philly metro area. We play '90s covers, so if you're looking to hear Van Halen, Flock of Seagulls, or Bon Jovi, you're probably looking for The Legwarmers.

But Grunge? Alternative rock? Pop hits from the Clinton years? We've got you covered there. Be Kind Rewind was started by Mike DePalma, Dan Taney, Colin Laury, Brandon Johnston, and Liz Mott in 2018. Mike plays the guitar and tries his best to belt like Eddie Vedder and croon like Thom Yorke all at once. Frank plays the squealy high notes wayyy on the up-high frets. Dan keeps the beat locked
