Start a Band: Speed Dating
Sounds Good opens its doors once again for an occasion to get together, meet new people, start new bands and get new sounds and faces on stage!
About
The event will follow a speed dating structure, with timed rotations so that you get a chance to meet everyone. A jam will follow for whoever would like to participate, and the bar will be working too. In order for the event to run smoothly on the day, it is necessary for all participants to be there from start to finish, approximately 3 hours.
At the end of the evening, you will have decided who you are starting a band with! In the following weeks you’ll have to prepare a small show (10-25 minutes) and present it at a gig happening at the space on the 28th of March.
It doesn’t matter if you know how to play music or not. If you want to just start a band, come along!
If this sounds like it might be for you, apply by filling out this form until the 17th of January: https://forms.gle/pBuofrpKHZq1sq9X8. (If you would like an English application form, send us a message)
Please note there are limited spaces for this event so applying does not guarantee a place. We will confirm your place on January 18th - check your spam folder.
A jam will follow for whoever would like to participate, and the bar will be working too.
Throughout the duration of the event, we’ll be running a bar.
We can’t wait!
About the venue
The project is currently housed in a shared creative space with another two projects, NTIZEZA AMOQA. Together we have converted the space to be wheelchair accessible.
The venue is located on the 5th floor of a business building. We changed the entire left line of elevator doors in the building, as well as installing a wheelchair-accessible bathroom. We have a metallic mobile ramp that we place at the entrance of the building, until we find the proper way to secure it.
How to find Stoa Fexi Project Space
Nearest metro station is Omonia
Exit Omonia station out of the Panepistimiou/Eleutheriou Venizelou st exit. Unfortunately this is not marked, so ask someone if you're not sure where to go.
Walk away from the square and reach Patision/28is Oktovriou. Cross the traffic lights and turn left immediately.
Keep walking on Patision until you will pass a small pedestrian street, Gladstonos on your right.
After this you will see the entrance of an arcade to your right. Enter the arcade and we are in the first office building to the left.
