Submission Guidelines for 2024 Concerts
  • To Apply:  E-mail katie.herzog@mercerisland.gov with links to your music samples, bio, photos, videos, and any other information you think will be useful to the selection committee. All submissions must be digital.
  • Submission Timeline: January 1, 2024 - March 1, 2024
  • Selection Timeline: The selection committee aims to confirm the line-up by April 1, 2024 (subject to change based on marketing & promotion timelines).
Performers - What Do We Offer?
  • Compensation: Once selected, the series coordinator will negotiate final contract amounts with each performer. 

  • Sound System: The City partners with Morgan Sound to provide high quality sound set-up. If selected, performers will work directly with the sound engineers on input and staging needs.

  • Marketing & Promotion: The City will promote the concerts through a variety of channels, which may include print mailers, signage, e-newsletters, and social media. Performers will be expected to promote concerts via their own networks and channels (website, social media, etc.). Once the line-up is selected, City staff will connect with performers about overall marketing plans and needs for individual concerts.
