Tre Brashear

Maha Music Festival

Tre earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Nebraska and his law degree from the University of Iowa. For 20 years he was a private practice attorney in Omaha.

In 2009, Tre and a few friends acted upon their vision that Omaha needed a music festival of its own and the nonprofit Maha Music Festival was born. Over seven years, the event has grown to include not just music, but also food, comedy, slam poetry and other elements. In 2012, Tre left private practice to become Corporate Counsel and Director of Corporate Giving for the Lozier Corporation and Lozier Foundation.

About the Maha Music Festival

Maha is a nonprofit music festival organized and run by volunteers, and brought to you through the support of our many wonderful sponsors. We created Maha for community-building, not for profit. The idea of a homegrown music festival had been around for years, but finally found the right group of volunteers in 2009. If you share our passion, we invite you to attend, become a volunteer and/or share your ideas with us for making Maha bigger and better.
