Gap has more than 30,000 employees who are inviting over 300,000 friends and family to these exclusive events.

Gap’s ties to music go back to its first store in San Francisco that opened 40 years ago selling jeans and records. Today, Gap continues to connect with people through music. Join already committed artists Matt White, Lenka, Single File and Ellis Hooks as they help Gap celebrate four decades of great fashion and music, and be part of the largest-ever simultaneous live acoustic music event.


You’ll also have an opportunity to get your music in the hands of every Gap employee and be able to sell your CD’s at the event. One song from each performing artist will be available for download at a web site exclusively for Gap employees. That means more eyes and ears on you.


And the other perks:


  • A chance to win a recording session with famed producer John Alagia (www.johnalagia.com).
  • A chance to win a Gap wardrobe.
  • Free pair(s) of Gap 1969 jeans, a new collection of premium jeans that will launch in August.
