CREATING AN ALL BOATS RISE SCENARIO FOR THE VENUE, THE ARTIST, & THE AUDIENCE
While Bigger Beast Records started solely as a label and distributor for independent singer/songwriters, the need to create an ecosystem for the artists to grow and reach an audience via live performance eventually led the Bigger Beast team towards the development of a live music event booking entity which would coincide with a community outreach arm blending the concepts of traditional music festivals, house concerts, listening rooms, charitable fund raisers, and the desire to support local small businesses. The result was All Boats Rise Entertainment.
With the goal of creating events that help charitable causes, establish a live music infrastructure for independent artists, support small businesses, reinvigorate historic traditional music venues, and create special concert experiences for both the listeners and the performers, All Boats Rise Entertainment has partnered with multiple organizations and businesses to create music festivals, reestablish music historic venues, and create music events in non-traditional venues.
The Events, Venues, & Concerts We Currently Curate Are:
21 Songwriters (Connecticut)
A celebration of song, community, and collaboration, 21 Songwriters is a free admission festival where proceeds are collected for a not for profit near and dear to our hearts. The lineup is carefully selected to represent a diverse grouping of singer/songwriters whom share the stage 3 at a time performing in the round. 7 rounds across two stages, this artist focused event has proven to be a staple in the Bigger Beast/All Boats Rise event lineup as it is a community enrichment focused entity. Each 21SW festival ends with an All Are Welcome After Hours Song Circle where artists on the festival and not on the main lineup are all welcomed to share songs in the round until the midnight.
Many 21 Songwriters Festivals also include songwriting and music business workshops prior to the beginning of the main stage making this event a full service entity for the songwriting community.

No Worries Brewing
Working with All Boats Rise Entertainment has been an ideal partnership for No Worries Brewing. We are big advocates and fans of music but as a unique location we struggled to maintain consistency in our live music schedule in regards to preferred style and sonic quality. All Boats Rise worked closely with us to define a consistent lineup of artists that work well in helping us create our desired atmosphere and become a consistent place for patrons both new and existing to enjoy live music. They are organized, detail oriented, and consitent in their approach to ensure we are beyond happy with the artists performing in our space”.
