School Night books great artists before most people know them.

Now one of the most respected live music showcases in the industry, it was created by Chris Douridas, a longtime KCRW host and three-time Grammy-nominated producer, and creative director Matt Goldman. Billie Eilish and Hozier both played School Night early in their careers.

Every year, thousands of musicians ask to play. The team built an artist-submission form in Dropbox so musicians can send their work and apply in one place, instead of through scattered DMs and emails. It keeps the submissions organized and easy to sort, so the booking comes down to the music.

“I wake up every day looking for new music that inspires me, and I do my part to push that music out into the world.” – Chris Douridas
