FESTIVAL OF FRIENDS / SEATTLE, WA

Festival of Friends events are made up of:
  • Pre-organized cover​ song performance collectives​ showcasing material by iconic bands and artists performed by a rotating cast of musicians over the course of the evening​.
  • Guitarists, bassists, drummers, keyboardists and vocalists (available instrumentation is material dependent) who've registered in advance for the songs they want to perform on their primary instrument.
  • Participating musicians choose a minimum of two and a maximum of four songs each.  All participants select from the published event set list below based on their playing level, confidence in learning material, vocal range and overall interest in the music. 
​Festival of Friends events are for:
  • Armchair musicians as well as routine players with an intermediate to advanced-level skill set (even if its been a while and you're just looking to kick off the rust).
  • Who can learn material on their own and readily apply it in a live event setting. There are no auditions or formalized rehearsals.
  • The only requirements for participating musicians is to come to the show ready to perform (i.e., know the songs and your parts to the best of your ability), be respectful to your event bandmates and to have lots of fun!
What are the benefits of participating?
  • Simple, convenient and low-pressure way to play in a band and perform live with new faces and old friends. 
  • Improve your overall playing through focused, goal-oriented practice time and live performance gigs.
  • Try out new musical styles you might otherwise not have considered or had the opportunity to explore. 
  • Spend less time organizing a band and more time applying your passion and skills.
  • Play and perform music minus any long-term commitment above and beyond the event itself.

Note: If you're signing up for "Guitar One" as your primary instrument you're committing to lead and rhythm guitar parts whereas "Guitar Two" primary instrument is rhythm guitar-parts only. Both guitarists will double-up on rhythm parts as appropriate and/or worked out ahead of time.  Overall song presentation by all musicians should follow standard instrumentation and arrangements as originally recorded on the song's studio versions, keeping everyone on the same page regarding practice time and event performances.
