Outside of these events, be on the lookout for monthly collaborations, activations, and pop-up experiences nationwide, curated by FRL and our valued partners.
Looking back at OASIS “Grown and Sexy” and honestly… we’re still not over it. 🤎
On April 30th, we brought the “Grown & Sexy” vibes to life with incredible networking, live R&B, and a killer performance backed by a live guitarist. Thank you to everyone who came out to connect, vibe, and build with the culture here in Austin.

512 showed OUT 🤎
On Tuesday, May 12th, Front Row Functions decided to try something different — a FREE, low-pressure intimate happy hour meetup at Reverly Bar + Kitchen @rkbatx for Black Austinites looking to get outside, meet new people, and build community.
Whether you just moved to Austin, were looking for good vibes after work, or simply wanted to connect with other Black people in the city, y’all pulled up and made it special.
Thank you to everyone who came through, showed love, and reminded us why the Front Row family is so important. We truly appreciate all the support and energy y’all continue to pour into this community.
Next up: OASIS 🌴
Our signature after-work R&B mixer series at the Thompson Hotel returns May 28th.
Good music. Good people. Good energy.
Tickets are live on Posh — link in bio.
Front Row Functions is bringing the vibes back home to AUSTIN. Since October 2024, Oasis has been your go-to sanctuary for pure RnB, analog experiences, and real community. On Thursday, May 28th, 2026, we celebrate our 25th edition, and we want you there.
🎟️ The “$5 for the 25th” Special
To thank the community that built this, we are dropping a limited batch of $5 tickets.
Deadline: Available until Friday, May 15th (or until they’re gone!)
The Catch: These will sell out fast. Don’t wait for the lineup drop to secure your spot.
🎹 What to Expect
We’re keeping the full DJ and Artist lineup under wraps for just a little longer, but you know the drill: soulful curation, and a room full of people actually looking each other in the eye.
Tickets are in the bio.
ATX, we see y’all 👀🖤
Tomorrow is 512 Day and we know Austin hasn’t always felt easy to navigate when you’re looking for Black community. But lately, our FYP has been showing us something beautiful — so many new Black people moving here, looking for connection, friendship, and people who just get it.
So tomorrow, the Front Row family is pulling up to Revelry Kitchen + Bar @rkbatx for a casual happy hour meetup. Come grab a drink, play cards, eat dinner, laugh, and meet some new people. Whether you come solo or bring friends, you’ve got people to sit with here.
Please RSVP so we know how big of a table to reserve! Link in Bio
Love y’all always,
Front Row Family 🖤✨

Rain couldn’t stop the vibes. 🌧️✨
Last Thursday’s OASIS was another reminder that the Front Row Family always shows up and shows out. From the energy in the room, the connections being made, and the music flowing all night long — Austin showed us love once again. 🤎
Huge shoutout to @withlovemmarie for the beautiful performance and incredible presence. Special thank you as well to our sound selectors @djaarooo and @djkaycali for setting the tone all night with nothing but soulful heat. 🎶
And to the hundreds of beautiful people who pulled up despite the weather — thank you for continuing to make OASIS feel like home every single time.
Big love to @_qvisuals for capturing the night perfectly with this clean recap. 📹✨

Yesterday on Google Meet we had a convo…
“How do we actually bring our people together in Austin?”
Today, we’re making it happen.
We’ve been seeing more of us move here and ask the same question: “Where the Black people at?” — so this is the answer.
