Heads up 309! The annual TWC riverfront show is always a special night for Peoria. Too White Crew has been packing the riverfront for over a decade and they're the only band that covers all the classic hip hop hits from the 80's, 90's and early 00's.

TWC unites all ages, all cultures and people who don't even necessarily like hip hop, but enjoy the TWC show. If you haven't seen them, you're in for a treat! The show is completely live, without the use of tracks or prerecorded music, they have choreographed "fly girls" and you'll know all the music!

You'll see other familiar faces on stage as well... Peoria's own DJ McFly (coming out of retirement for this night), Don "Big D" Black and the Dopestylez Crew will all be on hand to start the party. Check out the pictures from last year! goo.gl/86gKom

COVER CHARGE/TICKETS: $8

About the band:

Sworn enemies of musical sameness, Electric Orange Peel has been hell bent on getting outside of the box since their inception in April 2013. The four-piece has been quickly making a name for themselves across the Midwest, consistently appearing on major festival lineups like Summer Camp, Resonance, and The Werk Out.

The band has been astounding audiences show-after-show with their intricate compositions and out-of-this-world improvisation. Drummer Dylan Aughe lays down wildly complex grooves for bassist Nate Labine to texture with masterful jazz licks. Marko Manastyrskyj brings massive energy with his insane chops on the keys, and Austin Crumrine ties it all together with jaw-dropping guitar solos and mind-blowing improvisational technique.

Fresh out of the studio recording their debut album, "Seed", EOP is on a serious tear right now and is showing no signs of slowing.
