ARE THERE ANY SONGS I CAN'T CHOOSE?
Let’s mix it up—please skip these recently performed songs.
To help keep our setlist fresh, please avoid selecting songs that have already been performed at The 815 in the past year. You can view the list of recently performed songs by clicking the link above.
Please ensure that your song lyrics are appropriate for a family audience. Excessive profanity, explicit sexual content, or drug references are not permitted. If your chosen song contains one or two swear words, you’re welcome to sing them or substitute them with alternative lyrics.
