About The Good Neighbor Concert Series:
The mission of The Good Neighbor Concert Series (GNCS) is provide a high-quality, inclusive, and accessible listening-room experience, featuring diverse, underrepresented, and emerging musical artists from across Michigan and beyond, where performers, community members, local businesses, and nonprofit organizations can make a positive impact for the Greater Lansing area, and inspire others to do likewise. Its vision is to transform the Greater-Lansing area into a vibrant, healthy, joyful, and hopeful destination, where live, original, Michigan-grown music thrives, and where all people are seen, valued, supported, inspired, and empowered to lead authentic and fulfilling lives, in harmony with one another.
The series works to raise awareness, funding, and other support for local nonprofit organizations, collaborates with local businesses whose values align with its mission, and elevates artists from a variety of backgrounds whose lives and work clearly exemplify and advocate for a more just, peaceful, kind, healthy, diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible community, state, and world. We strive to provide a safe gathering place where attendees and artists alike can build life-giving, in-person connections, work toward mutual growth and understanding, and become agents of positive change, that, in turn, inspire others in the community to work together for the common good.
We were recently recognized for our efforts at the 2025 Stage One Annual Red Carpet Awards Gala, taking home the Creativity Award! Check out the replay here:
The series occurs on select Tuesday evenings, once per month. All shows take place at Stage One at Sycamore Creek Eastwood, a performance venue made available to the Greater-Lansing community by Sycamore Creek Church (SCC), an inclusive, affirming church where diversity is celebrated and all people are welcome. It occurs once a month. The series also partners with local food-based businesses to provide a variety of concession items for purchase at the events in the time between when the doors open and when the music begins.
Each event highlights a different local nonprofit organization or charitable cause, with either a Lansing-area or statewide Michigan focus. Each nonprofit has the opportunity to table at the event, so that attendees can learn more, gain access to needed support and resources, get involved as a volunteer, and/or donate directly to the nonprofit if desired. Nonprofits also have an opportunity to give opening remarks before the music starts.
