Anticon 20 Year Anniversary Show and Tribute to Alias ~ June 25th

L.A. label Anticon has introduced the world to a bevy of groundbreaking artists and is celebrating 20 years of operations this June. The celebration will honor the life of co-founder Brendon ‘Alias’ Whitney, who tragically passed away earlier this year. The label bosses have told us that a show like this that involves such a wide variety of the label's acts and friends hasn't happened before and won't again, so get your tickets now.

Official Release

Join us on Monday, June 25th for this very special one-night-only concert in celebration of the life and artistic contributions of Brendon ‘Alias’ Whitney. As a founding member of the Anticon collective, Bren’s progressive approach to production, engineering, and songwriting created a strong foundation for a constant supply of boundary-pushing artists.

All proceeds from ticket sales will go towards Jenn Whitney and Bren’s two children back in Portland, Maine. We strongly suggest an early arrival as the show will be at 7 PM.

We will honor Alias’ contributions with a rare gathering of his friends and contemporaries on and in the Anticon scope of reference. We’ll let the show’s bill speak to the magnitude of artists involved in this important occasion. Expect a constant stream of performances from beginning to end with special DJs binding the night together.
