House Concerts performed by DeVoe Music
Why we decided to do House Concerts
In today's digital world of streaming music online, experiencing great live music has become harder and harder to come by.
Today's venues feature predominantely bands who perform cover songs, which leaves no room for emerging recording artists to showcase their original music.
Presented by the idea to do a Live performance in the intimate setting of a House Concert was super exiting to us.
Inspired by the TV show "Live From Daryl's House", we decided to take our music on the road and bring it to a living room or backyard near you.
Performing in someone's home and sharing the "Behind the Music" stories for each song, become a delightful, entertaining and fun event for everyone.
House Concert History
House concerts are a popular, intimate and rewarding way for music artists to connect with an audience in a very special way.
Hundreds of years ago, in the days of chamber music, people would gather in their drawing rooms or salons to listen to live musicians. It was a way to get together with friends and be introduced to new artists and their work. This concept has now been revived and has grown in popularity across the country.
It is a live concert before a group of music enthusiasts by an artist or small group in a private residence or equivalent setting. It is a unique opportunity to meet and experience the performer up close and personal. The average house concert has 25-50 guests, it's a two set show with intermission for socializing, beverages and potluck or simple snacks.
