On that note, Cedarhurst Senior living, with nearly 68 communities in nine states, is putting out a call for musicians and small bands to play to its residents. The 45-minute performances will be held in the courtyards of the senior living communities, allowing residents to listen from safe distances, and offering musicians the opportunity to earn some income the summer.
Interested musicians may apply here. Musicians selected to perform will be paid $100 for each courtyard performance and are encouraged to submit their application with a link to their music for consideration. Cedarhurst locations are listed here.
"As we all come out of the pandemic, one thing that seniors missed the most was interaction with other residents and loved ones. Hosting live music lifts spirits and can also help our talented local musicians,” said Sarah Vinson, Corporate Director of Life Enrichment. “All genres are welcome, whether music from our residents’ youth or songs that get their toes tapping, we hope this will channel the power of music for good.”
