The Bainbridge Island Studio Tour is currently seeking small groups and soloists to sing and play during this year’s summer tour.

The tour is Aug. 9-11. Organizers said appropriate styles include acoustic, folk, classical, jazz, country, light rock, and easy-going upbeat music that is appropriate for all ages. Professionals and amateurs are both welcome, and an online sign-up list is now available at www.bistudiotour.com/musicsignup.php along with more details.

The Bainbridge Island Summer Studio Tour is a popular grassroots art event in local island studios and gardens and is celebrating its 13th  year in 2013. This year, there will be 46 artists in six studios and the tour expects thousands of patrons to visit the studios over the course of the three-day weekend.

Musicians will be given space in the artist’s gardens to share their gift of live music and enhance everyone’s experience of the tour. Tents, shade, and/or chairs will be provided whenever possible.

Tour organizers note that performing slots typically fill up fast and musicians should sign up as soon as possible; performers can sign up for two consecutive time slots if desired.

Sign-ups close Aug. 7.

Musicians will only be contacted if there is a question, or a need for more information.
