IN-PERSON EVENT
Your safety is our top priority. For more information about our COVID safety policies & protocols, visit our public safety page.
Music director Roy Studmire will mix and master a layered recording of every single person who wants to make music in New Haven. Attendees are encouraged to bring whatever they use to make music and join a full professional band for a socially distanced afternoon of intermingling sounds as Roy captures it all. A non-recorded jam session will ensue, and eventually, an EP for and by the city of New Haven!
Record With Roy Studmire 3 PM - 6 PM
Seeking musicians and vocalists interested to work with a Music Producer, Roy Studmirr, to record tracks. If you're a vocalist you can pair up with a musician for this submission (or vice versa!), or you can submit on your own and be matched with another artist. Each artist who participates will receive a digital copy of the tracks they laid (delivered several days after the event) and will be invited to participate in a jam session for the public featuring all of the artists who have recorded which will be lead by the Producer from the stage on the New Haven Green. A limited number of 20 minute recording sessions will be available! We will have a PA and some basic backline available including a keyboard, jazz/rock drum kit, mics, DIs and monitors. With your submission, please indicate your availability among these time slots: 3 pm, 3:20 pm, 3: 40 pm, 4 pm, 4:20 pm, 4:40 pm, 5 pm, 5:20 pm, 5:40 pm. Interested performers should register with Make Music New Haven and submit their materials to the Festival's Venue profile for consideration.
