Rebecca's House Concerts

House Concerts are a growing phenomenon across the country designed to bring an audience and a musical artist closer together. Here's the deal: We invite a musician to play at our house. We invite anybody and everybody to come hear him/her. We pass a hat (a suggested donation of 10 bucks). All proceeds go to the musician. Everyone has a great time, listening to live, local music!
