The 5th Annual Xfest NW Christian Music Festival is a showcase for Northwest bands that are less commercial Christian artists. The festival is located in Stevenson, Washington about 45 minutes east of Portland Oregon, and will take place over Labor Day weekend, August 29 – August 31, 2008.
Its purpose is to be a community oriented festival for local bands. Festival features include camping, a skatepark, coffee shop, kids playground, and 3 stages total presenting 20+ artists. Last year, over 500 people attended Xfest. Attendees are encouraged to bring food, tents or trailers, energy, love, a free-spirit, and an open mind.
There are two performance opportunities for artists to submit their EPKs to: The Xfest mainstage and the Xfest acoustic stage. Artists performing on the acoustic stage must be trios or smaller, and may feature percussion but no full drum kits.
Genres accepted include acoustic, rock, ska, metal, bluegrass, punk, electronic, hip hop, singer/songwriter and more.
