The Central Committee is happy to announce the first set of confirmed artists for our 2015 festival. All the way from Italy, we’ve got the amazing Debora Petrina, a singer and composer who has worked in the worlds of Classical music and modern styles. Our California quota this year is being filled by the wonderful MoeTar, who have been building a name for themselves in the prog world lately.

And of course, Seattle will be well represented by Upwell and General Mojo’s Key Project, two amazing bands that couldn’t be more different.

More announcements will be made as arrangements are finalized — we’re working on quite a few wonderful things!

Seaprog 2015 dates re-set

SEAPROG 2015 UPDATE: After initially setting our dates for 2015, it was discovered that the Columbia City Blues Festival is set to take place that same weekend; therefore, to avoid conflicts, we’ve rescheduled Seaprog 2015 to August 7-9. Apologies for the false alarm, but we were unaware of the conflict at the time; the new dates will remain firm.

Seaprog 2015 dates set

We’re happy to announce that the third edition of Seaprog will take place on August 14-16, 2015. After careful consideration, it was decided to move the event to later in the summer to avoid clashing with many competing events on Seattle’s crowded summer calendar. Note that we are not yet fielding submissions at this early juncture but will announce the call in due time. Greatly looking forward to another memorable weekend of adventurous music!
