We’re ready to crank it up to 11 this year starting with the MidCoast Takeover of South by Southwest!!
Up from the gut, out from the middle, we are the sound of the heart of American music and it’s time the rest of the world heard it too! This is an incredible opportunity for our region to showcase the music it creates at the largest music festival in America. The possibilities are limitless for these artists regarding exposure, networking, and marketing opportunities. MidCoast Takeover is a major undertaking, production wise, and our aim is to provide the best stage possible to showcase our artists right.
We are very pleased to announce that one of our major sponsors is Boulevard Brewing Company! However we still need your help to raise the rest of the funds needed to help pay for the venue, sound, lighting and video production. And here is how you can help!
