We hear Aretha's at Music Hall has been one of your favorite venues in the Detroit area. So we're doing it again, upgrading our last event there to encompass talent from around the state and returning on Friday April 24th. Here are the details and discounts!


If you want to read about the national coverage our Detroit Sounds show got us, keep scrolling.


Rustbelt Sounds will bring together:


Chris Cranick - acclaimed songwriter, musician, rocker and Music Director at WYCE in Grand Rapids...


Matt Bastardson Alt-Country/Americana prophet with a penchant to wear his Rustbelt mood on his sleeves and lyrics hailing from the worm hole in Pontiac Michigan that connects us to coal country...


...and of course Jennifer Westwood and the Handsome Devils.

We are happy to be using Detroit based ticket company - Passage (go passage). They take great care of everyone and are independent!



Passage reached out to me after hearing my story and have been fantastic....


You see, after Detroit Sounds, the company I had previously used for ticketing held around $1700 of my ticket revenue and were completely unresponsive. Money I already paid out to my musicians - which I have been adamant about. And I don't believe my misfortune shouldn't be passed down. You can thank my Dad for that!


This is a large sum for a working artist. Weeks passed, and as they continued to collect funds for my next show, I laid in bed sick to my stomach... and decided to pull out the heavy artillery. A hard decision for me because I like people to escape their trouble, not hear more. But sometimes shared trouble lightens the load.


I emailed a music journalist for help and he immediately responded. And as soon as he reached the ticket companu for comment....Well, no less than a day later did my money appear in my account. The story was picked up as far as the west coast and I heard from peers and venues that had the same trouble. Glad its in the past but as they say, when life give you lemons, call the press! We got a little bump in the algorithms.


See you all for a stress free time at Rustbelt Sounds!
