Perform Raise the MIC

Raise the MIC is an opportunity for bands and musicians to put the power of music to work for positive change in the world with a benefit concert for Music in Common. Aligning with our mission to strengthen, empower, and educate communities through the universal language of music, your performance proactively engages your fans, reaches new audiences, and supports our programs  to empower diverse cultures and faiths to discover common ground through collaborative songwriting, multimedia, and performance.

RAISE the MIC events can be already scheduled concerts or they can be organized specifically as a RAISE the MIC event. Shows are not limited to any particular type of venue and can include traditional venues, homes, or online platforms such as Concert Window, Facebook live, YouTube streaming, and other webcast services.

We are here to assist you throughout the process and look forward to hearing your ideas for Raise the MIC!
