Adeem the Artist

These performances are in support of a rough concept of a plan for a live show and will include a set of new songs, request submissions, and a Q&A portion.

Do you live in or near one of the cities listed below? Do you have a large living room, loft space, community space, art gallery, or other indoor space that can comfortably and safely host 25-50? If so, we want to hear from you!

To take the first steps and get involved, please: 

• Read all the hosting expectations outlined on this page. 
• Complete the intake form (below) to submit your space. 
• Sit tight! We will get back to you ASAP with dates and logistics. 

Trying to keep this simple for hosts. All you have to do is let us borrow your space (for approx. 3 hours) and check-in guests at the door upon arrival. In return you’ll get to see Adeem the Artist perform up close and personal, 5 free tickets for your friends, and our eternal gratitude.

These shows can only happen if fans volunteer to host, so reach out today to help us get this show on the road.

REGIONS OF INTEREST:
Cities listed above are just suggestions. We are open to any and all submissions – even if you don’t live in a major metropolis. Where should we come next??

1. LOCATION
In the past we’ve booked all kinds of spaces. It can be residential, commercial, community, or any other indoor space where you can host a private gathering. Bonus points for being centrally located! The space should comfortably and safely hold a minimum of 35 people. 

There needs to be street parking, a parking garage, or public transportation nearby so guests can access your space easily. Before you offer to host a show, please check with your neighbors to confirm they’re ok with a bunch of extra people coming over. It would be a huge bummer if someone called the cops because of all the extra cars and people.

2. CAPACITY
Be realistic. This is the number of tickets we put on sale. Please keep in mind when determining your capacity, you get five free tickets for friends that won’t be included in the ticketed capacity. The capacity you tell us will be the number of tickets we put on sale. EXAMPLE: If we sell 50 tickets and you invite 5 guests, there will be 55 people at the show.

3. TICKET PRICE
Ticket will be $20-30. There will be no reselling or third-party tickets sales. All tickets sales are direct to fans from Four Quarters Records. Limit 4 tickets per person. 

4. GUEST LIST
On show night we’ll provide the host with a list of everyone coming to the show. The host is primarily needed to check people off the list as they arrive. The host won’t have to handle any money since all tickets are purchased in advance through Four Quarters. We ask guests to arrive between 7:15-7:45pm to check-in for 8pm shows.

5. FREE TICKETS FOR HOSTS
The host gets 5 additional free tickets for the show in addition to anyone who lives at the space. If you have other friends beyond your 5 guests who want to come to the show you should direct them buy tickets online.

6. PROMOTING THE SHOW
House shows promoted through the artists and our websites, social media, mailing lists, and word-of-mouth. We rely on hosts to help us spread the word to their friends on the local level. Social media posts are more than sufficient. 

Please don’t post your home address. The show address is only goes to guests after they purchase tickets. In addition to respecting your privacy, we need to keep the show locations private so random folks don’t show up hoping to get tickets at the door.

7. SOUND SYSTEM & LIGHTING
You don’t need a sound system. The performer's will need access to nearby electrical outlets to plug in a small guitar amp. You don’t need any special lighting. But it would be great if you had some kind of ambient lighting like a lamp on coffee table, floor lamp, or overhead lights with a dimmer to help create a cozy mood.

8. SEATING
You don’t need seating for everyone. If you have a bunch of chairs – great! But most shows are floor seating and we let guests know they should bring folding chair, cushion, or pillow to sit on during the show.

If all that sounds ok,
