We have been holding House Concerts at the Gallery for a year and a half now, hard to believe it’s been that long. They’re very popular along w/our monthly songwriters’ group, and we’re happy to keep offering them as part of Bottlebrush’s embracing of all arts. Thank you for your interest and on-going support of our music events.

Our next house concert is on Friday, September 28. North Carolina’s David Childers will bring his rockin’ Americana music AND HIS ART to the Bottlebrush, with an opening by Pittsburgh’s Bruce Hoffman.  More information below!

Lonesome No More Productions proudly presents: David Childers  

David Childers is an acclaimed Americana ARTIST AND MUSICIAN who writes tough, literary tunes informed by heartland rock, country music, folk music, small towns, and lonesome highways. He also draws passionate inspiration and imagery from the Bible. 1999’s Hard Time Countyand 2001’s A Good Way to Die feature musician contributions (and some co-production) from noted Nashville artist Duane Jarvis. The latter album also featured non-traditional accents such as the sitar on“Possibility” (played by multi-instrumentalist Eric Lovell). ~Erik Hage, All Music Guide  http://www.davidchilders.com         We are proud to show David’s artwork as part of his concert/show Friday night. Come on by and check it out! 

With Special Guest Bruce Hoffman

Bruce Hoffman is a local singer songwriter that demands your attention because he is a very bright, and capable songwriter with a wry sense of himself in the world he observes. Reminds us of John Prine -rich with detail and color, some sadness, and beauty, but always a little tongue-in-cheek.
Come out and support local, live music!

Friday, September 28, 2012, 7:00pm.
Admission: $10, Advanced Reservations Required to (724) 452-0539
BYOB. Snacks provided.

For those of you unfamiliar with the term “house concerts”, they are small-venue, original material performances held right in our Gallery– with smaller audiences, you can see and hear the shows very well, and talk to the musicians.  Instead of the usual noisy bar atmosphere, you’re treated to a listening room experience– very different and so good for enjoying music!

For a donation of $10, you get 2.5-3 hours of music by professional artists from music meccas like Baltimore, Nashville, North Carolina, and West Virginia who are travelling through our area and are willing to stop and play a Friday night show for us.  The concerts are BYOB, with occasional snacks provided. RSVP is required– the seating is limited to about 40 people, altho’ we’ve had more show up quite often! You’re surrounded by local artists’ work, a beautiful setting, with excellent acoustics. If you haven’t been to one yet, give it a try. Where else will you see an evening of music for only $10?  If you are one of our many fans, thank you!
