   About Islington House Showspace
Our purpose is to provide touring and local bands with a hospitable and friendly environment to play shows. We think this is the best way to help the music community.

Any show held here will always be all-ages, and always free (although we would love if you could donate what money you can for touring bands). All shows will be potlucks! (Vegan/allergen-free if possible!)

Unless otherwise noted, our shows will always start at 7PM and end before midnight. Weekday shows will have to end even earlier than that. (All of our neighbors are really excellent people, and they have lives and jobs, and I feel it's important to respect them and give them some peace and quiet late in the night)

NO ALCOHOL OR DRUGS, PLEASE! This is a private home, and we ask to respect our space; alcohol somehow always seems to get house venues shut down!

Our address is Three Islington Terrace in Allston (right behind Jackson Mann). Accessible easily via the B Train on the Green Line, the 57, 64, or 66! Please come by for our shows and have fun with us!


BANDS!
If you want to get in contact with us, the best way to do so would probably be to email Maxwell at BirthQuakeRecords [at] gmail.com

For the time being, any shows held here will have to be acoustic, with little exception. Noise is an issue! Sorry! We also can only hold a show or two any given month. We don't want to piss off our neighbors. :O )

If you're a touring band, we will try our best to help you out with gas money with pass-the-hat donations.

We're not really comfortable with other people booking shows here. You can send a show our way, and we'll consider taking it on, but we can't guarantee we'll take it on.

We only really book shows to help touring bands. We love to have local bands on, but we only really want to book to help support bands who REALLY NEED a show. Y'know?

If your band or it's members are homophobic, sexist, abusive, racist, violent, intolerant, etc, don't bother contacting us. Thanks!

Sending your page some Holiday Love!!   Thanks for the friendship!
We have placed a humble cover/medley up for our fans until our album is done (and it almost is!)....

The song(s) are Mull of Kintyre (originally recorded by Wings) and All I've Got To Do (Originally recorded by the Beatles). Of course, you know by now just how much we adore anything Paul McCartney or any member of the Beatles have done!

Seth and I did a duet/switch off, and the boys and I did some cool rockin' harmonies and back-up tracks.

Please take a second and listen to our rendition! Hope you like it....and again, hope your new year is off to a great start!

LIVE.LAUGH.RAWK! 

Hugs and Smiles! CHEERS!

yeah! that's awesome. we're gonna try to make it to the 29th show. we've been talking about trying to get more connected with house venues in the area to help each other out. so yeah if you have a touring band and you can't have a show and we could help them out we'd love to.  i'm pumped you guys are thinking the same way we are.  okay, see you soon!
