Everett Music Initiative

Since 2012, the Everett Music Initiative (EMI) has been a central force for music, community, and the arts in Everett. 

Through intimate shows at local venues, new spaces with unique events, or the Fisherman’s Village Music Festival, EMI has been behind the scenes, bringing much-needed nightlife to Snohomish County. 

EMI’s mission is simple: Building community through unforgettable musical experiences, artist advocacy and development, and amplifying Everett's identity as a destination.

These last 11 years have been marked by some real success. EMI has produced or partnered on more than 400 events that brought over 250,000 people to Everett. Many of those events were covered by The Seattle Times, Alaska Airlines Beyond Magazine, Evening Magazine, KEXP, and more. 

In addition to supporting local artists and their development, EMI has hosted dozens of national acts that have played late-night TV shows, earned Grammy nominations, or topped the Billboard Charts. All of this has given Everett a fresh identity as a burgeoning arts hub where people are proud to visit or live.
