Northwestern University: Lunch on the Lake 2009

Located in Evanston, Illinois, Northwestern University holds a bi-weekly summer concert series from 12 to 1 pm called Lunch on the Lake. Artists perform outdoors on the East Lawn of the student union on Lake Michigan for students, faculty, staff and community members. The series will run from June 25, 2009 until August 6, 2009.

Northwestern University is looking for artists across several different genres and are open to a variety of acts, although they most often they host small jazz groups, acoustic groups, singer/songwriters and solo acts. Sound equipment can be provided and acts will be compensated with a negotiable flat fee up to $500. Artists must provide their own accommodations. The Lunch on the Lake series will host approximately 10-12 artists throughout the summer. Lunch on the Lake is perfect for any artist who wants to pick up a daytime gig if they have an evening show booked in Chicago.

As a part of Chicago's North Shore region, artists playing at Northwestern University would be close enough from these daytime performances to also perform at Chicago the same night.

Please Note: Only artists who submit through the Northwestern University drop box will be considered for performance. Please refrain from calling or emailing Northwestern University.
