Atwood's is currently showcasing the best in local Root's, Blues, and Bluegrass. To begin the booking process send an introductory e-mail with either a link to samples of your music, or mp3's to BOOKING@ATWOODSTAVERN.COM. If you don't have any music on-line send your press kit and demo CD to 877 Cambridge St., Cambridge MA. Do not call the bar with questions, as the bartenders are not the one's making the decisions. Not every inquiry will be answered, but they will be listened to and your efforts are appreciated.
As for the room itself, volume is our utmost concern. We are located in a mixed-use neighborhood, which means that there are people trying to sleep next door while you are playing. To deal with this we have put some limitations on the room. Personal amplification is allowed, but discouraged. What we like to see is musicians walking into the bar with acoustic instruments, pre amp's, and a few cables. Our PA does the rest of the work. We have 6 microphones with stands and cables. Bass amps are allowed, but again volume is a concern. As for percussion, no full sized kit's are allowed. Cocktail and jazz sets are acceptable (bring your brushes).
