Shoreline Music Summit & Celebration

The Shoreline Music Summit and Celebration is a two-day event that includes a summit on September 16 that brings together leaders from the PNW music community to discuss issues facing musicians and opportunities for growth and on September 17th, celebrate our vibrant music scene with a night of free music for the community (21+) featuring performances by artists like Sera Cahoone, The Marshall Law Band, The Moondoggies, Wild Powwers, and others. Attendees will get a chance to sample our area's music venues and some of the amazing music being produced in our region.


Produced by local non-profit Black Fret with support from The Recording Academy, City of Shoreline, Port of Seattle, King County, The Department of Commerce, KEXP, and the Shoreline Chamber of Commerce, The Shoreline Music Celebration hopes to evolve into an annual event highlighting music, venues and the City of Shoreline’s storied role in the history of Northwest music.
