The fourth annual Reaching Out fundraising concert will be on Saturday, September 14 from 10 p.m. to close on Sunday, September 15 at Missipi Brewing Co., 107 Iowa Avenue in Muscatine. Proceeds benefit NAMI Greater Mississippi Valley.

Fueled by Emo, a Chicago based emo and pop punk cover band, hits the stage at 10 p.m. and will play until closing with a $10 minimum cover charge.
