Live music in the middle of the roller rink while you skate! 🎸🔥
We’re incredibly excited to bring KOBA, an emerging heavy band of young musicians who are wildly proficient players, to the rink. Joining them are local shoegazers Kim Frasier for a night of heavy riffs, dreamy noise, and everything in between.
Fans of Deftones, My Bloody Valentine, shoegaze, alternative rock, and heavy music—this one’s for you. Whether you’re here to skate, rock out, or do both, Make It Loud! is where Seattle’s music and skate scenes collide.
