Music scene · Steilacoom

Steilacoom is a historic small town on Puget Sound where school ensembles, church choirs, and acoustic performers provide most of the live music. Summer concerts at the waterfront park draw listeners, while Seattle and Tacoma area musicians occasionally cross the bridge for intimate gigs.

Music happens at the waterfront park pavilion, local churches, the high school auditorium, and small restaurants around town. The historical society also opens its venue for community concerts and cultural events.

Local and regional artists perform here, with musicians from the nearby Tacoma scene occasionally passing through.

Artists can start by performing at the summer park concert series, connecting with school music directors, and networking with Tacoma area bands that need an opening acoustic set in a scenic town.
