Make.Shift
Make.Shift Art Space empowers, supports, and creates opportunities for local artists and musicians. Make.Shift is a non-profit art space.
Our mission is to engage the community by providing all-ages spaces for art and music in Whatcom and Skagit Counties. Make.Shift started in 2008 with the modest goal of being a support network for local bands. Now we run an all-ages art gallery and music venue, affordable art studios and band practice spaces, and a low-power community radio station, KZAX 94.9 FM.
***SHOW BOOKING is done exclusively via email: [email protected]

Flooding is never fun, and if you’ve been a part of Make.Shift over the years, you know this isn’t the first time we’ve had this issue. Sincere apologies to everyone playing and who was planning on coming out for this stacked lineup. We’re hoping to have this one back on ASAP! All presale tix will be honored for the rescheduled show, but if you need a refund please feel free to reach out. If you want to help us out with our mitigation efforts, please consider donating! 🙏

Friday May 29th at Make.Shift
Sceneric
Sprig (Seattle)
No-Fi Soul Rebellion
Cat Positive
All ages
Doors 8pm
$11 advance / $15 day of show
Cat Positive opens the night and we are really excited to play with Sprig again. The last time we shared a bill was at Central Saloon in 2021. The room was packed with goths, qu**rs and baseball bros peacefully coexisting together. One of my favorite shows ever. Sprig absolutely killed it and we’ve wanted to do it again ever since.
At the request of the performers, we ask that attendees please wear a mask at this event. If you’ve been wanting to participate in a masked-up show, this is a great opportunity. Thanks for helping make live music more accessible and for supporting our immunocompromised community ❤️
