We are strongly committed to the development of bands who play Harpers Ferry and we'll do our best to provide your band with a great stage and grow you til you are packing the club regularly.

We NO LONGER ACCEPT MAILED PRESS KITS

PLEASE DO THE EARTH A FAVOR, SKIP THE POSTAGE
Send us A LINK, NOT A FILE, A LINK, YES A LINK, A LINK, I REPEAT, A LINK, NOT A FILE, A LINK to where your best stuff is posted online. Send that LINK to booking@harpersferryboston dot com and give us four weeks to check it out. If you do not have a web page or music posted on line, GET GOIN' IT'S 2005 ALREADY - it's probably a good indication that you are not yet ready to play Harpers Ferry

Allow a good 4 weeks to digest it, then give a call T-F 12-5 @ 617-254-7380.
If you have any questions about booking, or you want to follow up on a demo, please feel free to email Dan at booking@harpersferryboston dot com. Do not add that address to any spamlists without asking permission. Do not send any digital press kits or electronic music or email us your life story. There is no guarantee that we'll email you back, so please be patient and understand that there are a lot of you and one of us.
We can't possibly answer every booking call, but all links will be listened to. Call once a week and don't leave multiple messages please. Be patient and keep gigging, if it takes us longer to get to you, you'll be that much bigger when we give you a gig.

SOME THINGS THAT WILL HELP YOU GET A GIG AT HARPERS FERRY

Have a clue about how to promote yourself, be happening and part of a scene... We look for exciting, crowd pleasing, entertaining, energetic music of all styles. Have a real press kit, play some of the other clubs in the city, and above all, build a fan base, a steady draw of friends and fans. Harpers Ferry is a big room and it's especially big when it's empty, so if you don't have some fans, play some other rooms until you know you can pack the place. We'll be here for you.

If you are from outside of the Boston Metro area, we do book national and regional bands, but you better be ready to make a strong case as to why we should pay attention to you. Some things that'll help are if you are headlining clubs in your hometown or are seriously happening in many markets or if you have college fans that now go to school in Boston. We believe in developing bands, but you have to have your poop together!

SOME CALLING TIPS THAT'LL KEEP ME SANE AND YOU FROM MAKING ME INSANE -

Stick to the call times
Don't leave more than one message per week
Don't speed dial all day long hoping someone will pick up

Thanks, and may all your rock n' roll dreams come true!
