Summary

The Extreme Tour is booking at least 30 artists to participate in their 21st year of touring Extreme Sports and Music Events. 

The Opportunity

These are festival-style, community events taking place in over 100 U.S. cities and 14 other countries across North America, Europe, Africa and Asia.  It is a great opportunity for young bands looking to gain experience on the road and veteran performers interested in a headlining slot.

The mission of the Extreme Tour is to make a positive contribution to the community. This is a very intentional charitable endeavor. While these are not religious events aimed at a religious audience, members of the Extreme Tour Staff are compelled in their efforts for the organization's mission by their Christian Faith.  However, Extreme Tour is not looking specifically for exclusively Christian artists. Rather, they are looking primarily for artists who sense an artistic calling to make a positive impact with their expression.

Past Performers Include:
Kurtis Blow, KJ-52, Kutless, House of Heroes,Grave Robber
