Your Live Music Guide to 4-20
\4-20 has become a live music holiday, and much like Halloween bringing out metal, hard rock, dark-wave and cover bands-4-20 is all about reggae, hip-hop, jam bands and more. Our area venue have those that celebrate covered.
The Waiting Room will host a big 4-20 show tonight with Omaha’s own King Iso. King Iso is currently running across the country on tour for his new album illdren and will be making a stop in Omaha. The line up also includes Taebo Tha Truth, Unconventional Kingz and DJ Doc.
The Beach House Bar and Grill will have festivities all day with the Izza Vybe 420 Comedy and Music Day Party stating at 2PM today. The late night festivities get going at 9PM with a big reggae show featuring Elisha Isreal, Az-One, DJ Starr and Stryker
Riff rock band and reggae band Gallivant and reggae band Nice Up will be the main attractions at the Down Under Lounge annual 4-20 celebration. That one starts right at 4:20PM.
Grateful Dead bar Brokedown Palace seems like the proper place to celebrate 4-20, and the will have Omaha’s long running reggae act Rhythm Collective there.
Hector Anchondo may be known more for playing the blues these days, but he goes back to his roots as his band Anchondo performs the music of Sublime this evening at Slowdown with No Doubt tribute band Tragic Kingdom. Both Sublime and No Doubt play Coachella again this weekend-so this can be your Omaha version.
It’s not advertised at a 4-20 party or anything, but Steelhouse Omaha has the Gasolina Reggaton Party happening tonight.
In Lincoln you have Ro Hempel at The Zoo Bar tonight and a multi artist hip-hop show at Storm Cellar (see lineup below).
There are many other things happening tonight including the big hair band and 80’s rock tribute Hairball at Liberty First Credit Union Arena. O’leavers will be packed tonight as Rosali ends their tour there. Dereck Higgins project D H X is also on the lineup. The Astro has TikTok and You Tube star and singer-songwriter Jess Murph. That show sold out quickly when it was announced.
It is also Record Store Day and you can come visit me at Homer’s today, but if you are looking to see some live music in a record store, Recycled Sounds will have Virgin Mary Pistol Grip and Hanyaks today.
There is a ton more happening and you can check it out all out below. Be safe!
