CIYH creates and nurtures opportunities that pay artists to perform in a listening environment, while bringing communities together with a renewed passion for live music.
Why?
It's increasingly challenging for touring performers to draw audiences to clubs, and more difficult still to connect with these audiences in a meaningful way.
For acoustic performers especially, most venues offer too many distractions (televisions, loud conversations, etc.), and are far too reliant on alcohol sales and a "Top 40" atmosphere.
How?
We promote the concept of house concerts to artists and music lovers across the U.S. and beyond. Through the web and word-of-mouth, this site promotes the appeal of house concerts and helps turn music fans into concert promoters.
We believe the value of music is best measured by memories - not alcohol sales.
We also believe that house concerts are the best way to enjoy live music today. You do not have to be a member to use this site. Our efforts are funded by donations, and the artists you'll find on the artist search page.
CIYH makes no judgement regarding specific artists and hosts promoted on this site. We are not responsible for their performance or conduct. We encourage artists to make references available. Shop wisely - and have a great time!
