So sad to say, but the bands that were scheduled to perform in the 500 block of Miller (She-Bop, Deep Steam, Indie Rock Royalty) are cancelling due to the weather. Aiming for next year!

Calling all Water Hill musicians! I think we could actually start planning to bring the music fest back this May! Message me if you'd like to get involved.

Has anyone had any success signing up for the music festival on a google doc that was supposedly shared through Nextdoor? There was allegedly a closed group and you could request to sign up. I don't know who started it and have had no luck. Anyone know anything about this?

Hi Water Hill Musicians, we're trying to put together a schedule, so please post your band name here and the time you'd like to be playing. Thanks!
