Ames
Ames Progressive
We host lots of shows. We especially host lots of local and regional artists and we also host many nationally touring acts. It is a warm and intimate venue, feels like a chill living room. All shows are all-ages and alcohol-free. We have hosted many different kinds of acts: folk, rock, electronic, experimental, singer-songwriter, bluegrass. The space is very well-suited to solo and acoustic acts, but we're up for anything.

The Beauty Shop
it's not a huge town but the kids here are passionate and appreciative of live music.
we are a medium sized space with a LARGE pa and an okay sized stage. we cant have a massive amount of shows each month, but we promise to respond to every email you send to us, even if we can't put together a show. We are also touring musicians so we know what it's like to send out a million emails and not even get a response. we love music and the DIY. thank you. you can email us at beauty.shop.ff@gmail.com

Public Space One
an all-ages DIY community art/music space. we have a small stage, a hefty PA, and a medium sized space with lots of couches. scheduling is flexible, the earlier you contact me, the better your chances are at the date you want. i don't like to do more than one show a week, but i can book a long way in advance, so get requests in early. e-mail me at daniel@westonpayne.com with a link to your music and the date you're looking for. i will respond to all e-mails as promptly as i can. due to the DIY nature of the venue (thats why you're on this site) i cannot offer a guarantee, but i will pay touring bands the best i can.
