Complete this form and we will evaluate the band/performer on a case-by-case basis. If we are interested, we will contact the booking agent directly.

Historically, we have selected bands/performers classified as “CCM” (Contemporary Christian Music). However, we have also featured bands/performers who do not fit neatly into this category (Colony House, Dustin Nickerson, and Vacation Manor, to name a few). In all of these cases, the bands/performers in question either came from a Christian music background or have members who profess to be Christians. So, while we do take the genre and lyrical content of bands/performers into consideration, we do not choose them simply because they are classified as a “Christian band” or feature explicitly Christian lyrics. In our estimation, “Christian” as a genre/category is a helpful way for streaming services to lump all-faith-driven-art into one place.  We think of our selections in three, basic terms: excellent, popular, and interesting.

• We want to invite bands/performers based on their excellence. In terms of lyrical content, this means artists who meet the basic standards set forth in the university’s code of conduct, which excludes artists deemed “offensive (i.e., lewd lyrics, anti-Christian message, etc.)” Otherwise, this means we are looking for artists who are skilled as musicians, lyricists, songwriters, and performers and have been distinguished as such. Our selection of national-level touring artists typically accomplishes this. This is not to say that local or regional acts are not or cannot be excellent. It simply means that national acts have distinguished themselves in terms of musical quality, production, stage presence, and overall artist “polish”.
• We want to invite popular bands/performers. We are looking for artists who make music that is 1.) known or becoming known by a significant number of people and 2.) generally accessible to a broad audience. This is not to say that art or niche or lesser-known music is somehow inferior or unworthy of consideration or invitation. But, as much as possible, we want students to know and like the artists we bring. In most cases, this means artists that make popular music.
• We want to invite bands/performers who we consider interesting. We want artists that are exciting, who evoke listeners’ curiosity and draw them in to their music and lyrics, which therefore encourages participation in their live music event. This means inviting artists encompassing a wide variety of style and genre. Hopefully, this will encourage listeners to be more adventurous in their listening, being open to experience music outside of those genres/styles they are used to or familiar with.

There are very few experiences like a live music event, and we want ours to be excellent for both artist and audience. This is an ongoing discussion in our department and we would love to hear your thoughts in this regard. We recommend the following, short articles that should give you an overview of our thinking:

• “Another Switchfoot Concert” by Tim Challies (particularly Jon Foreman’s long quote at the end of the article)
• “Who killed the contemporary Christian music industry?” by Tyler Huckabee
• Charlie Peacock’s article in CCM Magazine from 2008, primarily his predictions of the future of Christian music, but that also contains some excellent insight into the industry itself.
• This interview featuring Dan Haseltine from Jars of Clay, particularly his thoughts on using “Christian” as a label/genre for any music (next to last interview question).

The Clear Bag Policy is currently implemented for all major university events in order to make sure that our events are not only fun and exciting, but also safe.

Policy guidelines:

• Each ticketed guest can carry one large clear bag–either a one-gallon Ziploc-style bag or the 12′′ x 6′′ x 12′′ clear bag–plus a small clutch purse (4.5′′ x 6.5′′). The small clutch must be carried into the venue outside the clear bag and is still subject to search.
• Guests carrying bags that do not meet the Clear Bag criteria will not be admitted into the venue. They may return their bag to their car or transfer items into an approved bag.

If you are interested in working with us, please apply to the job posting on the employment page of our website. We traditionally start new staff at the beginning of each semester.

Ticketed events are open to the general public. While we do not explicitly market our free events to non-Liberty affiliates, certain venues will allow them to join you. Block Party and After Party are open to Liberty students, faculty, and staff only.
