Omaha’s Stinson Park, which is set for one of its busiest summers in recent memory, got a a pre-Maha test-run this past weekend as close to 1,000 people gathered before Stinson Park’s Bradford Bowl for Proseeds Rocks The Park.
Five local bands — State Disco, The Hottman Sisters, Lot Walks, All Young Girls are Machine Guns and Routine Escorts — graced the stage along with Phoenix electronic indie band MRCH for a de-facto Maha Music Festival showcase. The nonprofit concert organization partnered with nonprofit donation facilitation company Proseeds (founded by State Disco’s Jared Bakewell) to produce the free, family-friendly concert.
Stinson Park will continue to heat up as the summer progresses, serving as the annual home of Maha Music Festival Aug 20 (RSVP here). Two weeks earlier, it will host the first-ever New Generation Music Festival Aug 5 (RSVP here).
