Subscape is a 3 day, 3 stage, 50+ band celebration of the subversive elements fueling Baltimore’s bleeding-edge underground. Like Baltimore’s previous “Scapes” (Ratscape, Whartscape, Scape Scape, and Mix Tape), Subscape is a DIY, all-volunteer effort to uplift local artists and musicians.
THE DIFFERENCE? THIS FESTIVAL IS COMPLETELY FREE TO ATTEND!
The festival runs August 2nd through August 4th — in tandem with Artscape — on stages at Metro Baltimore and The Crown.
The Impact
We set out to make Subscape free because we want to open up the Baltimore music underground to the thousands of people streaming into the city during Artscape. Our city has one of the best music scenes on the planet and it deserves to be championed by everyone who lives here. In a world where it’s harder than ever to find community in the non-virtual world, the DIY music scene is a refuge for countless people to connect and support each other.
