We're Listening Membership

We're Listening, A 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity located in the beautiful Delaware beaches is committed to building up a musical community full of talented musicians and enthusiastic audiences and cultivating a once thriving original music scene in Southern Delaware by providing unique events, classes and workshops for musicians of all abilities and listeners of all genres. We believe in combatting the national loneliness epidemic through bringing people together in community to make music and lasting friendships. Offering opportunities for musicians and songwriters under our venue name, The Listening Booth, We’re Listening is bringing a whole new experience to the Delaware beaches.

We are committed to:

ORIGINAL MUSIC. We want to hear your story. We believe that telling your story through music is one of the greatest forms of self expression. We believe there is no better way to express your feelings and make connections with audiences than singing your own words and playing your own music.
SHARED AND TRANSFORMATIVE EXPERIENCES. Developing and promoting unique experiences that help people of all ages discover the arts, tap into their creative potential, and share their passions and talents with new audiences. We combat the loneliness epidemic plaguing our country by gathering in community to sing, play and share our songs to heal and move forward.
EDUCATION. Everyone can learn to play, sing, write and it is never too late to do so. Through our private lessons, group lesson, adult rock band camp, sing-a-longs, open mic nights, song circles, jam sessions and myriad other educational events we promote musical education in a fun and digestible manner. We believe it is never too late to start and never too late to start over. We believe in the healing power of music for what it does to the brain and the body.
