The series is funded by donations and sponsorships. The format is "an evening with" each band, so artists should have between two and two and a half hours of good material. There are 13 shows in the 2012 series, one every Friday from June 1st to August 31st.



Past performers have included Chris Smither, The Iguanas, Blue Highway, Mary Gauthier, Slaid Cleaves, The Greencards, The Biscuit Burners, Guggenheim Grotto and Moonalice.


Audience is all ages and performers must be "family friendly." Check out the web site to get an idea of the range of music to see if you'll be appropriate.



The series is produced entirely by volunteer music lovers on behalf of the City of Greensburg, located about 25 miles east of Pittsburgh. The performances are held every Friday evening at 7 PM, June through August.

Please don't wait until the last minute to submit as they review all year long, begin booking in November and usually finish by March. If you submit early, they'll have much more time to review your music. Keep in mind that rap doesn't fly here and, unless you're Chris Smither, singer-songwriters will need a backing band.
