FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (AND ANSWERS)

I'M IN A BAND/I'M A DJ - HOW DO I GET A GIG AT PASSING CLOUDS?

The vast majority of our events are hosted by outside promoters so, although you are welcome to send us your links, we rarely book bands or DJs that we don't already have connections with. Below is a list of some of our regular promoters that are always looking for fresh talent. We also recommend keeping an eye on what events we run, who runs them, and coming down to chat to the organisers. Personal connections are the name of the game! Please also consider that we are a world music venue and do not host rock/indie/electronic bands.
