1. HOW DO I BOOK A SHOW AT THE MUSE?

If you are sending a booking request (original music) please email info@eveningmuse.com with the following information:

Dates & Times requested

Solo or Full Band

Recent hard-ticketed headline shows (& number of tickets sold)

Show history in the Charlotte area

Approx. attendance anticipated for a live show at the Muse

Website/socials and live and recorded video and music links.

While we review every request, if you are an up-and-coming act, we strongly encourage you to network with established acts to schedule a show opening for them or let us know if you see a compatible act that might be interested in your support. Keep in mind that headliners are usually looking for someone with a history in the area, and the ability to bring in 15-20.

We typically look for headliners that can draw 60+ on a weeknight, or 80+, bar heavy bands, on Fri. & Sat. night. Sundays & Tuesdays we're usually closed unless we're certain to fill the room. Mondays are our weekly open mics.

Due to the high volume of requests, we might not get to all the EPKs submitted, so setting up a show with an established act is the best way to get your first show here, or to schedule a return date more quickly. You should also come to our weekly Monday night Open Mics to get seen and heard by a large audience, as well as our staff members.

We book about 3 months in advance.
