A friend of mine is looking to take her band on tour, by taking advantage of Jet Blues travel deal.
They need help booking shows and they're considering the following cities:
Austin/Dallas/Houston
DC/Baltimore/Raleigh, NC
Chicago
Boston
Philadelphia
NYC
Seattle/Portland
San Diego
If you can help, or know someone who can help, let me know and I'll forward that information.

Hey Peeps!
Sadie from The Invisible Cities here! I am setting up a September Tour outside of San Francisco and I could super use your help! I know, you are thinking this is a crazy idea and not nearly enough planning time. And you are correct. It is inspired by a Jet Blue’s 9/8 - 10/8 all-you-can-fly deal, though, so blame Jet Blue. If I can get enough solid leads in the next 48 hours, I’ll buy my pass. This is what I’m asking –
If you can help book me a show (or know someone who can) in any of these areas any of the weekends listed below, please let me know! Ideally, I’d love to play a show at a public venue, but I’m also thinking about other creative ideas, like record shops, radio shows, in-store shows, or even house concerts (if we’re friends, or friends of friends). I’ll be playing super acoustic, singer songwritery style (without a full band) — and the better the shows I land, the more likely a bandmate or two will be able to come along — either way, it’ll be a fun, mellow show.
I’m considering the following cities (Jet Blue goes to these places or close enough):
Austin/Dallas/Houston
DC/Baltimore/Raleigh, NC
Chicago
Boston
Philadelphia
NYC
Seattle/Portland
San Diego
I’m looking roughly at the following dates:
9/10 - 9/13
9/18 - 9/20
9/25 - 9/27
10/1 - 10/4
However, if there are opportunities for dates farther out, I’d be open to exploring those, too.
If you book me a show, I’ll give you a copy of each of our CDs (Watertown and Houses Shine Like Teeth) and a recording of yours truly playing a tune from our upcoming EP… And we can get coffee or whiskey before or after the show! (I’m shy as hell, but there’s always a chance I’ll be hyped up on caffeine and chatty. Who knows?)
Hope you’re doin’ well, and thanks in advance for any help!
Sadie.
