4DAWA Fest w/ Killer Mike & the Mighty Midnight Revival, Anastasia Hera, David Shabani & the Nu Leopards; live mixtape ft. Blakchyl, Cha'keeta B, Kydd Jones, NOOK Turner, Riders Against the Storm, more

In the six years since Riders Against the Storm MC Jonathan “Chaka” Mahone launched creatives of color support group Diversity Awareness & Wellness in Action, the nonprofit has opened a free space on the Eastside for podcasting, events, photo shoots, and workshops; curated historic BIPOC-focused programming at South by Southwest; and, crucially, supplied hundreds of thousands of dollars to Austin’s creative community. This anniversary event presents another impressive achievement with a performance by Run the Jewels’ Killer Mike, plus locals David Shabani and Anastasia Hera. A live mixtape taps other DAWA-approved artists: Big Mic, Blakchyl, Cha’keeta B, Kydd Jones, and many more. – Carys Anderson
