Hello Acoustic Music Fans!
It was great to see so many familiar faces at the Lloyd Cole/Mint show and Pasadena Arts Fair, and meet so many new folks as well!
I hope you can join us for one or both of two upcoming special Listening Room Concert Series events.
Thursday, April 19th, we'll be at The Coachhouse in San Juan Capistrano for a special Listening Room On The Road night and I am pleased to be able to offer FREE TICKETS to anyone on this list who emails their name, and number in their party, to me by Wednesday evening. Bring as many people as you like just let me know Our goal is 200 people, and the line-up, as youll read below, is incredible!
Additionally, anyone who has already purchased a ticket for The Coachhouse show will be given free admittance to the Third Anniversary Special Concert at Fremont Centre Theatre in South Pasadena, CA Monday, April 23rd (just bring your ticket stub!). This will be a special night of songs, presented by some of my favorite writer/performers, with many surprise guests, in the beautiful Spanish colonial style 80 seat theatre that has been our home for the past three years for these monthly shows of local, national and international performing songwriters.
These shows are for me, about creating community, around the shared appreciation of original works by voices that more often than not wont be found through major media channels. And we need your support to keep them growing!
Come help up celebrate the Listening Room Series as we enter a fourth season, having already presented over 300 songwriters from the U.S. and abroad including Denmark, Australia, Canada, Venezuela, Ireland, England and Scotland.
Hope to see you at one or noth shows!
Sincerely,
Brett
