Band Application

Our mission for Bash on the Farm is to provide quality Christian entertainment with an outreach focus, and provide a venue for unsigned bands to play that have a ministry focus.

1/20/2010 - We are begining to book bands for 2010. If there is a date you need to know if you are accepted by, make note of that. Booking is a continual process for us. We try to have most of the booking done by the end of March but there are always bands that seem to break up or can't come up to the last week, then we will fill those spots as they become available with bands that have applied. Feel free to e-mail booking@bashonthefarm.com if you would like to more info or have questions. Thanks for your interest in coming to Bash on the Farm!

Our booking goals are:

To have bands that will effectively share the gospel and challenge the attendees to a closer walk with Christ.
To have a variety of genre’s to appeal to a wide variety of music tastes.

If your band isn’t ministry focused please do not apply. No profanity is allowed in lyrics. Also, please make sure your band is available to perform the weekend of Bash on the Farm before you apply.
