Concerts and Music

Attend or host a concert

“Her songs measure the cost of urban sprawl not in terms of species endangered, but in memories lost. Her lyrics evoke all the trails we've hiked, the streams swum, the trees climbed, and all the moments of growth enjoyed there--the silent epiphanies, the stolen kisses--without ever sounding preachy. But when she drops the truism ‘Your children won't know (the land) the way I did,’ suddenly your local zoning battle may seem a little more interesting."

— Yankee Magazine

In a world of virtual everything, these concerts offer something more:

In-person experiences, rooted in presence, place, and genuine connections.

Imagine a moment that feels finally like a real pause, where the rest of the world slips away for a while. Where it’s just you and the people you’re with.

That’s what I want my concerts to feel like for you.

Each one is crafted like a narrative arc, and is part concert, part storytelling, part guided experience. Whether on a concert stage, a retreat center, or under the stars by a campfire, I’ll bring music, story, and reflection together to create something deeply felt and truly unique.

”Listening to 'Good Summer Rain' is like flipping through the photo album of an Ansel Adams road trip. Each artfully created song transports the listener to a particular location, like a snapshot in time.”

— Planet Jackson Hole

Experience songs that connect you to yourself, your surroundings, and each other.

Performances

These concerts are curated experiences that reflect the moment we’re in: the time of year, where we are, and the people gathered there.

Through song, story, and conversation, I guide audiences on a journey that fosters connection and a shared sense of place and belonging.

Ideal for community events, gatherings, and public programs seeking something soulful, personal, and lasting.

Campfire-Style

Casual in format, these concerts are built for ease. Think storytelling, a few sing-alongs, seasonal songs, and a good dose of laughter.

Held indoors or out, they create a space where people relax, lean in, and leave feeling more like a community than they did when they arrived.

I’curate a selection of songs that root us in a time and place. These casual concerts evoke a kind of nostalgic ease and are always an event highlight.

For Milestones and Celebrations

Celebrate life’s big moments with a concert that tells your story. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, retirement, or other meaningful event, I’ll craft a one-of-a-kind musical journey based on your memories and milestones.

I’ll gather stories ahead of time and shape them into a live, heartfelt experience—part tribute, part memoir, part magic.

Unforgettable, emotional, and often joyfully unexpected.

Song-on-the-Spot: Concert Add On

This community-building experience is a fun, participatory activity. I’ll gather insights and reflections from the audience and then craft a collective, crowd-sourced sourced song-on-the-spot using their ideas. This provides an immediate and meaningful way to connect people to the moment, to places and each other.
