What is a House Concert?



What is a House Concert?

A house concert is a concert in a home setting.

From the time of the traveling troubadours and before, 
house concerts have always happened throughout history, 
in a natural way to support musical artists
and their talent, message, and original works.

Some of the greatest musical artists of all time
have traveled the circuit of house concerts
as a way to be seen and heard for their musical genius,
and to pay their bills.

We gladly support that historical tradition,
and welcome relief from the burgeoning list
of distractions and impediments
to listening to and supporting
musical talent today. 
It is our belief that great music
(and the great musicians who create these works of art) 
deserve to be heard, respected and financially supported
in a fair trade atmosphere where the musician
sets the ticket price of the show.

In our house concerts, you have a chance to
experience music in a refreshing outdoor
and intimate environment, 
where we share
a performance by a noteworthy musician.
It's a way to meet the performers
and get them to sign their CD.
A house concert is also a great social evening
where you can meet and network with others
truly interested in music and the arts.

In our love of music, friendship and community,
we share with you our shows.

Please check back with our blog, to keep updated 
with our shows and news.
