house concerts
Private venue gigs
House concerts are musical performances held in private homes rather than traditional venues.
The host invites guests, the artist performs in a living room or backyard, and the atmosphere is intimate—often with the audience seated on floors or folding chairs just feet from the performer.
House concerts have become a grassroots circuit for touring musicians, especially folk and acoustic artists who thrive on close connection with listeners: We're doing a house concert in Portland on Thursday.
