If you are a band that would like to be considered, please read on:

We start booking in late October.

Children's bands should work well in a noisy, outdoor venue, and be upbeat, interactive, and appealing to adults.

For the evening all ages concerts, we do not usually hire the same band two years in a row.

Send an electronic press kit to KirklandSummerConcerts [at] gmail [dot] com. The kit should contain links to the following information:

Due to the number of submissions received, we may only contact you if you are selected to play.

Thank you for your interest in our series!
