We are actively seeking bands, djs, and other musical acts to join us at our Summit Lake Neighborhood Farmers’ Markets this Summer and Fall! As we were brainstorming different acts that might be interested in engaging the Summit Lake community, we thought of you! Might you be interested in joining us for one or more markets down at Summit Lake?

Specifically, we are looking for music that can engage young and old folks alike. For example, last year we had jazz bands, African drumming, and a DJ playing a wide variety of music. Acts should be prepared to play for 2 hours or even the entire duration of the market. Of course, bands and DJs can use their discretion in creating sets with built in breaks!

Compensation will be $50 for each market. In addition, we will make sure all musical acts leave with a bag of fresh produce and other market goodies. Lastly, folks can put a hat down and busk for money from audience members! We will do our best to promote all shows on our social media and try to entice as big an audience as possible to join us.

Please let me know if you are interested in playing at the Summit Lake Farmers’ Market. Markets will be every Tuesday from 4-7pm starting June 28th and ending October 4th. I have listed the dates below and would ask that if you are interested, Please Choose Your Top 3 Dates and Send Them to Me! I will try to accommodate folks on a first come first serve basis.

Don’t hesitate to call or email with any questions or queries regarding the Summit Lake Neighborhood Market.
