Big Neck Fest

Big Neck Records, purveyors of national and regional (and some top Detroit) garage rock, punk, and hardcore bands, are bringing their annual 2-day showcase to the Outer Limits Lounge in Detroit. The fest will feature locals Werewolf Jones, The Stools, 208, Toeheads, and Pharma. Touring bands include Science Man, The Archeas, Willful Boys, Teen Cobra, and McQQeen. Big Neck Records is an independent record label founded and operated by Bart Hart. It was started in Buffalo, New York in 1995 with the release of the first Blowtops and Baseball Furies 7-inch EPs (Voodoo Alley and This Is the World's Greatest Rock & Roll Record, respectively). Birthed from the underbelly of Buffalo, NY, the label then moved to DC area in 1998 and expanded their roster to acts throughout the U.S. and the world. The label's motto is, "We put out messed up, crazed rock and roll that we like!" Previous Big Neck Fests have been hosted in Madison, Wisconsin, and Buffalo, New York.
