SWAAG and UnCommon Pizza present: Velma Lyle and The Ouija Beegees

Velma Lyle: This five member, local band is the best string/brass/rock/folk band in Bethel. Twice as good as a band with a single bell euphonium. Come out to support your local musicians. More info here: https://www.velmalyle.com

The Ouija Beegees: A rocknroll band hailing from Anchorage, Alaska. They have been knockin' on eardrums in dives, basements, and basements of dives since 2022. Blistering guitars, a booming backbeat, and dynamo vocals. Give 'em 30 minutes and they will have you feeling younger and older at the same time. More info here: https://www.theouijabeegees.com
