What is a house concert?

Peter Mulvey performs at Litte Apple House Concerts - January 23rd, 2009

A house concert, very simply defined, is a musical event presented in someone’s home. House concerts are put on by dedicated music lovers who open their homes and invite you to share in a performance by one of their favorite musicians.

For the audience, a house concert is a chance to experience music in a warm and intimate environment. It’s a chance to meet the performers and get them to sign their CD. A house concert is also a great social evening of friends and music fans.

House concerts are a wonderful grass roots phenomenon. They are fun to attend, fun to present and fun to play. One hundred percent of donations and merchandise sales go directly to the performer.
