We welcome all acts, from classic rock to metal, singer-songwriters to jazz combos, plus poets, storytellers and more! You do not need to be a Concord resident to perform. There is no audition; everyone is accepted! We reserve the right, however, to limit set lengths or close registration early due to festival capacity.
If you wish, we invite you to accept tips or pass the hat. You may also sell merchandise and publicize upcoming shows. However, we ask that you recruit a friend to oversee sales, and bring cash for making change and/or a credit card swiper. Please also provide your own equipment, amplifiers, extension cords and snacks (though your host will probably be eager to shower you with food and drink).
Most of the questions you may have can be found in the form linked above. When you complete the form, you'll be emailed a copy of your responses to refer back to. If you have any questions not answered there, please contact us.
