Win tickets to see synth band Incredible Change on Friday—and they’ll buy your first drink!

Irresistible local synth-pop combo comes to Kilowatt during Portola Fest weekend—and we want you to go.

We’ve got three pairs of tickets to give away to see local synth-pop band Incredible Change with Inframezzo and How?? at Kilowatt this Fri/27 at 8pm, and the band will buy your first drink! 

TO ENTER: Email marke@48hills.org by 8pm Wednesday with ‘Incredible Change’ in the headline and the name of a Bay Area synth band that was around before the year 2000. It’s a retro skill test! We’ll let winners know Wednesday night. Good luck, and check out the band in the meantime. We have this on repeat:
