What Are Undertow Shows?

________________________________________________________________________
Undertow Shows are intimate events hosted by fans in private spaces, such as: living rooms, lofts, recording studios, coffee shops, art galleries, museums, bike shops, indoor skate parks, and many others!
Each show is completely unique. We try to find rooms that are accommodating for both the artist and the fans. Bonus points for rooms that pack some personality.
Each event is presented in a listening room format - so no talking during the performance and please silence your cell phone. Many artists tell stories in-between songs and some offer up the floor for fan Q&A. All of it adds up to a magical, intimate experience.
Hosts volunteer their space and time and do not profit from the show in any way. 85% of the ticket price goes directly to the artists. 15% goes to Undertow. Hey! There's a lot of work to make these shows happen! ;)
When you attend an Undertow Show you support living, breathing musicians in a direct and meaningful way. THANK YOU!
