This show will take place Saturday, June 7th at the Russell Industrial Center, beginning at 2 PM and admission is free and open to all!

Experience high-energy hip-hop and honest storytelling from one of today’s most compelling young voices:

Travis Thompson is a young rapper from Burien, WA, a Seattle suburb just 10 minutes outside of the city. A skater kid raised by A Navajo father and white mother- from one of the most diverse school districts in the nation- Travis brings a refreshing blend of perspective and authenticity to the music of today. 
 Thompson’s playful sound is guided by rhymes that combine evocative description and candid emotion. Travis began releasing singles & attention-grabbing visuals which quickly would turn into a devoted fanbase. After being featured on Macklemore’s 2017 song “Corner Store,” he made his major-label debut with the 2019 EP Runaways, which he followed the same year with the album Reckless Endangerment. Even gracing television stages such as the BET HIP-HOP AWARDS Cypher & WILD N’ OUT to promote it. His third LP, 2021’s BLVD BOY, featured guest spots from the likes of G-Eazy, Juicy J, KYLE, WS Boogie, Kota The Friend & more. 
 In a short amount of time, Travis has created a come up story and garnered a cult-like following that’s impossible to ignore. With millions of streams, on demand video views, tv appearances and more…it looks like Travis Thompson is here to stay.

Parking for this event is located in a lot adjacent to the industrial. For more information visit concertofcolors.com.
