nwcMUSIC

Whether you’re performer or audience member, can carry a tune or not, can play an instrument or just stare at it in befuddlement, Norwescon’s music programming is sure to have something for you! Check out our concert lineup, complete with playable previews, or get involved in one of our many panels and workshops!

At nwcMUSIC, we’re heavily into geekery, music, participatory culture or DIY. We want people to know that they can give this a go themselves, if they want. That’s why we’re so hands-on and workshop-oriented. Sure, listening to music you love is great, but so is making it! So look over the workshops and see if there’s anything you’d maybe like to try, and come to the overnight open filking and maybe give it a try yourself.

On the concert side, the entire lineup is strong this year, but take special note of Friday afternoon’s MONSTARRS OF NERDCORE event. If nerdcore is new to you? Nerdcore is geek hip-hop, and comes to fandom via gaming culture. They’re writing songs about robots taking over the world, about hobbits, about Skyrim, about the perils of geek life (both online and off), with a healthy dose of fannish sense of humour. Come by and check it out, it may surprise you.
