House Concert Opportunity: Madge Lake in Duck Mountain Provincial Park

House Concert Opportunity: Madge Lake in Duck Mountain Provincial Park

Looking for artist to perform either the weekend of July 2/3 or July 9/10 in an intimate outdoor setting

Deadline: June 30, 2022

Call for artists:

Hope to arrange a second summer "back yard concert" for the small summer community at Madge Lake in Duck Mountain Provincial Park.  Last July 4 (Sunday) evening we invited friends and neighbors to our attend an outdoor concert at this home.  Approximately 60 people came and enjoyed an evening with Jefferey Straker.  Many requested to do the same type of event again.

The venue is large enough to easily host up to 80 lawn chairs and there are two raised areas available for use as a "stage" for a soloist, a duo, or even a small group.  Power is easily accessible.  The house on the property can act as dressing room / break area.  In case of poor weather, the organizers had an alternate plan of using the garage to seat the audience and an enclosed trailer to host the artist.  However, in 2021, the evening gave them perfect weather for the event.

Last year the format was "by donation" with a suggested $25 per seat and at the end of the night, the total added up almost exactly, so the honor system was a success. Payment/ticket sale price to be discussed with the artist.

The show last year was very well suited with some story telling leading into each song.  The performance was very well received. Some artist merchandise was made available for sale afterwards.

They are looking for an artist willing to perform either the weekend of July 2/3 or July 9/10 for one night.  Sunday seemed to work well, but we can be flexible. Please note Sound System/PA is not provided.

Contact Warren if you're traveling through and would consider performing the evening event.
