The Unlocked Festival (formerly the Lockdown Festival) is an annual event that commemorates the spirit of creativity and resistance that prevailed through the COVID-19 pandemic. This special fundraiser offers an opportunity for the Bay Area music community to convene, gather strength, and forge ahead. (All proceeds directed to Temescal Art Center and Mujeres Unidas y Activas, an organization of Latina and Indigenous immigrant women focused on social and economic justice.)

Donations are warmly accepted. You may donate via Venmo to @grexsounds.com, or you may purchase an album of choice at grex.bandcamp.com. 100% of all Grex album sales on the day of the festival will be directed to the aforementioned causes.
