Featuring EVERYBODY!
Why is it called the Asheville Cesspool of Synths?
Back in 2011, NC State Senator James Forrester labeled Asheville as a “cesspool of sin” … Of course, AVL adopted this branding with relish and got T-shirts and mugs printed and everything! … Also – what with Moog and Make Noise here, AVL really is the synth capital of the universe
Hence … Cesspool of Synths!
What happens at tACoS?
Just show up!
… If you’d like to share something you’ve been synthesizing then be ready to jump in whenever there’s a moment.
You can perform a short solo or group set you have prepared.
You can be ready to collaborate and improvize.
You can bring some nifty gadget for folks to tinker around with.
You can plug in to power and PA in the garage.
Bring beverages and snax.
Kid friendly.
Coming from out of town?
You are welcome to camp out on the lawn – or inside the garage.
Just bring whatever camping and sleeping gear you need.
The CCC exists on community support. Please consider donating so we can continue to provide a space for creatives to collaborate and thrive. Thank you!
