Hello. I’m the founder and host of Bay Area House Concerts. Every month, in living rooms throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, I’m providing alternative venues to help musicians reach a new niche audience – namely, people like me who don’t get out to clubs much.
Now that musicians can easily record at home and distribute their work online, I’m hoping to contribute another piece of the puzzle by creating an offline space where they can merge their tribes, expand their fanbases and network with touring musicians from other states.
As a contributing writer for Acoustic Guitar magazine, I get to hear a lot of new music that I might otherwise overlook. In the past few years, the CDs I’ve received from the magazine have introduced me to a lot of inspired work that somehow stays below the radar. So my goal is to change the radar and tune into new music that gets missed by commercial radio.
So if you’ve got something I should hear, send a link and I’ll try to spread the word here on my blog. Next up on my plate for review: Bob Sima. Check back soon.
