May calendar coming in hot! We have a huge month ahead of us, and kicking off everything is Art Walk! We have two incredible workshops to look forward to, including one about how artists can decouple from big tech. Come on down to the space and see what we’re cooking up, and dont miss our May send off with our Boiler Event at the end of the month!

what does a thriving music industry look like without harmful tech companies like spotify?

i’ve been gnawing on this question for years, but in mid 2025 i finally had the courage to remove my music from streaming platforms and find out what my artist practice looked like without the music tech giants

i gave a talk on my findings called “SPOTIFY DROPOUOT”

people loved what i had to say

so we decided to run it back at @make.shiftartspace in Bellingham, WA

i’m proud of what i’ve accomplished so far, but i’m not gonna stop until we change the world.

u wanna help me?

Flooding is never fun, and if you’ve been a part of Make.Shift over the years, you know this isn’t the first time we’ve had this issue. Sincere apologies to everyone playing and who was planning on coming out for this stacked lineup. We’re hoping to have this one back on ASAP! All presale tix will be honored for the rescheduled show, but if you need a refund please feel free to reach out. If you want to help us out with our mitigation efforts, please consider donating! 🙏

Friday May 29th at Make.Shift

Sceneric
Sprig (Seattle)
No-Fi Soul Rebellion
Cat Positive

All ages
Doors 8pm
$11 advance / $15 day of show

Cat Positive opens the night and we are really excited to play with Sprig again. The last time we shared a bill was at Central Saloon in 2021. The room was packed with goths, queers and baseball bros peacefully coexisting together. One of my favorite shows ever. Sprig absolutely killed it and we’ve wanted to do it again ever since.

At the request of the performers, we ask that attendees please wear a mask at this event. If you’ve been wanting to participate in a masked-up show, this is a great opportunity. Thanks for helping make live music more accessible and for supporting our immunocompromised community ❤️
