We are always looking for new members to join us and help create a great musical environment in our community.
If you are the next Elvis Presly, Ravi Shankar, Miles Davies, Vanessa Mae, or want to be part of The Beatles, we want you to join us!
If singing or playing musical instruments is not your thing, no problem. We need great leaders, support staff, sound engineers, lighting specialists, videographers, and stagehands. If you like music, we like you!
We welcome new members from the whole community year-round, irrespective of where you are from, what you do at KAUST or how long you are staying. If you wish to join the club, please fill in the form here: https://forms.gle/tycBinDFbCrKA6D1A
We meet twice a month on Mondays at 7 PM in the Discovery Square Cinema, Room 1, to listen to live performances and jam. If you would like to join a meeting, please fill in the membership form so you receive our notifications.
While joining the club and our regular Monday meetings are completely free, members that make a 100 SAR/year donation (50 SAR for students) get access to the music room and all instruments in it, can borrow equipment to practice at home, and get free entry to all Open Mic Nights! All donations go towards the upkeep of instruments and organizing musical events. Please support us to share our love for music with the whole community!
