What we’re about
Bay Area House Concerts is where hosts, performers and lovers of live music connect to make magic happen. The events posted here are unique "listening room" opportunities, each of which is organized slightly differently but always in an intimate setting.
Note these are limited capacity concerts so each RSVP matters, If a host has confirmed they are expecting you, and agreed to let you "pay at the door," it is never okay to no-show without making the expected financial contribution.
If you are not yet a co-organizer but host house concerts and would like to post your events here, please contact our lead organizer (Winter Williams) directly to discuss contributing to the shared cost of maintaining this Meetup group,

See all- Stillhouse Junkies on Tour from Colorado! - SaratogaSaratoga, Saratoga, CA
We are so pleased to open the 2024 Music season at the Saratoga Music Series on 12 May with the Stillhouse Junkies, on tour from the hills of Colorado.
RSVP REQUIRED to Mike at 1hisierraman@gmail.com OR via Messages to me on this site. Details of location and other info given upon a "YES" RSVP (to this group on messages within a week of the concert and direct rapid to those who RSVP via email).
Voluntary DONATION of $20-$30 to support the band. Snacks and Drinks while supplies last. Rain cancels.
Stillhouse Junkies share the kind of strangely charmed chemistry that elevates both artist and audience alike. The Durango-bred band has offered up a hypnotic and high-energy form of roots music anchored in the free-flowing interplay among the three lifelong musicians (Fred Kosak on guitar and mandolin, Cody Tinnin on upright bass, Alissa Wolf on fiddle). While they’ve gained major traction in the bluegrass world in recent years—including winning the IBMA Momentum Band of the Year award in 2021—Stillhouse Junkies ultimately inhabit a genre-blurring and subtly inventive sound informed by everything from blues to classical to Texas swing. Stillhouse Junkies have now achieved such triumphs as touring in the UK and Europe and taking the stage at leading festivals like MerleFest and Grey Fox.
“Listeners can expect a riveting ride through the terrain Stillhouse Junkies bring to life in their music, and a confirmation of why the group was voted the 2021 IBMA Momentum Band of the Year.”
