Performing Artiste

About Us

We're a livehouse — an intimate live music venue dedicated to bringing unforgettable performances to our community. From emerging local acts to touring artists, our stage is where music comes alive. We're looking for talented, engaging Performing Artistes to join our lineup and bring energy to our stage on a regular basis.

The Role

As a Performing Artiste, you'll take the stage as part of our regular show lineup — delivering live performances that keep our audience coming back. Whether you're a solo act, part of a band, or a specialty performer, we're looking for people who can connect with a crowd and deliver consistently great sets.

What You'll Do

• Perform live sets on our stage according to an agreed schedule (weekly/bi-weekly/monthly, depending on arrangement)
• Deliver a set list that fits the venue's vibe and audience, adjusting based on crowd and event type
• Attend sound checks and rehearsals ahead of scheduled performances
• Collaborate with the venue's production and management team on stage setup, timing, and technical requirements
• Maintain a professional and reliable presence — arriving on time, prepared, and ready to perform
• Help build audience engagement through your stage presence, and where relevant, through your own social media promotion
• Provide your rider/technical requirements ahead of each show
• Represent the venue positively both on and off stage

What We're Looking For

• Proven performing experience (live gigs, residencies, showcases, competitions, or equivalent)
• Strong stage presence and ability to connect with a live audience
• Reliable and professional — able to commit to a consistent performance schedule
• Own instruments/equipment (unless otherwise arranged with the venue)
• Comfortable performing in an intimate, close-to-audience livehouse setting
• Good communication skills for coordinating with venue staff and management

Nice to Have

• Experience performing in genres that suit our venue's programming [e.g. indie, jazz, acoustic, rock — customize as needed]
• Willingness to collaborate with other artists for special nights or showcases

What We Offer

• Regular stage time in a well-loved live music venue
• Exposure to a built-in audience and the local music scene
• Professional sound and stage setup
• Opportunities for special event bookings, collaborations, and featured nights
