Host A House Concert
There’s still time for you to host an Avi Wisnia House Concert this year! It is a great way to provide an evening of entertainment for your friends, and a sure way to get me to play your favorite songs. I’ll be passing through these states in these months in particular:
August – NY, NJ, PA, DE, DC, MD, VA, NC
September – NY, NJ, PA, DE
November – CA
also booking Spring 2015
Special shout to Trudy & Ed Chara of Music On The Mountain in Brackney, PA for hosting me this month (see picture). If you are interested in hosting your own house concert, or if you want to learn more, email: AWHouseConcert@gmail.
