The Wyoming Arts Council and Treefort Music Fest are seeking musicians to perform at the March 25-29, music festival in Boise, Idaho.
This is a statewide call open to Wyoming independent musicians of all genres. Several acts will be selected by the talent buyers at Treefort Music Fest and paid for their performance. Selected acts will perform at a Wyoming focused showcase, an official event of the festival, and afforded the opportunity to play additional shows outside of this showcase.
This partnership is part of the Arts Council’s Wyoming Independent Music Initiative (WIMI) to help artists perform and tour out of state, building their audiences and reach. To apply for consideration, please complete the interest form and create or update your profile on the Wyoming Arts Council’s Artist Directory by Dec. 18, 2019. The interest form can be found online at: https://forms.gle/vmsZkXbVjy8jw7Mc6. Musicians can list themselves in the Artist Directory for free under the “Directories” tab at wyomingartscouncil.org. Selected artists will be notified by Treefort Music Fest in the new year. Artists who previously applied via Treefort’s own artist call will automatically be considered for this Wyoming-specific opportunity.
Treefort Music Fest welcomes spellbinding well-known and independent emerging artists from all over the globe. Since the festival’s inception, Boise has played host to thousands of bands traveling from within the Treasure Valley or as far as Western Europe, the Middle East, and Australia. Just like the uniqueness of every tree, each Treefort Music Fest features a wide variety of musicians and bands – every Treefort moment has its own soundtrack.

The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
