Concert Booking – volunteer style
Are you a musician looking for a place to play? Are you a friend of a musician helping them find a place to play? Are you an audience member that would like to have a favorite musician of yours play in the area? This is the place to get the ball rolling. Foundry Hall is an all volunteer organization and needs help on the concert presentation front.
If you are inquiring about the Riverfront Concert Series, Rhythm on the River or the Jazz Festival please put that in the comments on this form. Those are scheduled by committee in the dark days of winter, but we take suggestions year round.
Step 1: Check the home page calendar…we try to spread concerts out in a thoughtful way. All confirmed concerts are on the homepage. We try not to compete with other non-profit events happening in the area so being aware of what is planned on and around the dates is a good idea. The South Haven Visitor’s Bureau is a reference for local events.
Step 2: Figure out the best venue. This has a few implications. The musician(s) sound production needs are important. The day of the week can matter (i.e. the River Bottom downstairs at the BRT is not available on Saturday nights due to their weekly comedy night). Our current list of locations can be found here.
Step 3: Submit a concert proposal. Please include as much information as possible. This will make it easier for the following promotional things to happen: Update of Foundry Hall website, Facebook event created on Foundry Hall page, email newsletter and press releases.
