The Acoustic Guitar Project - KELOWNAThe Acoustic Guitar Project is a global music platform and concert series that inspires musicians to write an original song and record it live in one week.
Kelowna is one of the newest cities to be selected to participate and your curator is Sandy McAfee. "To be selected as one of the cities in this global project is such a huge honor. The only challenge was deciding how to select from the plethora of amazing talent here." says Sandy. Fortunately this is an annual project and there will be more artists to see in the coming years. This year's collection includes some great musical talent in a variety of styles. The show will give you a little taste of each of the performers including a "Concert ONLY" performer who will remain a mystery until that evening, you won't want to miss this.

About The Acoustic Guitar Project
One Guitar - a city and curator are chosen, five local musicians are selected and provided an acoustic guitar and a simple recorder.
One Week- each musician has one week to write an original song and record it live. No editing is allowed. Musicians also shoot a video describing their experience and/or song.
One Song - each musician signs the guitar and takes a picture with it. We upload their song, picture and video to the site. Then, the guitar is passed on to the next artist in that city.
Concert Series - When all five musicians have completed their songs, there is a concert. During the performance, each musician plays the song they wrote for the project and tells the story behind it.
