ABOUT BOOKING
Nonsequitur usually presents twelve NonSeq shows per year at the Good Shepherd Center Chapel, featuring artists ranging across the spectrum of “experimental” music, from esteemed veterans to emerging artists, visiting dignitaries to cherished locals.
Each year we hire a new team of four artist/curators who live in the Seattle area and represent different segments of the experimental music community. Each curator is in charge of booking three performances in that year. They generally know by February which artists they want to present, at which point our programming is booked for the rest of that year.
For this reason, we do not encourage unsolicited proposals.
