We have a full house for Danielle Miraglia!

We're excited to present Danielle Miraglia this Friday for our House Concert Subscribers. You're all in for a real musical treat, see you at the show! ~Tom and Laurie~ 

November 16 - Danielle Miraglia

HOUSE CONCERT, AND A LITTLE COOKING
November 16 - Danielle Miraglia

First I have to say THANK YOU to all our patrons.  The October 26 Sarah Peacock show was a blast.  Fantastic potluck too!  Large thanks go out to those of you who brought enough spirits to share, that was very much appreciated.  Good selection of wines, we apparently attract a classy group of folks!

Here's a video from the SARAH PEACOCK show.

 Many of you have already RSVP'd for the November 16 Danielle Miraglia show.  If you already got an email telling you we have your seats, no need to reply again here (but you can!).

If you haven't reserved seats yet you'll want to do that soon, our email list is now burgeoning and I think we have finally hammered out the seating limit at 27.  Keep in mind that we always have a waiting list, so if anyone needs to cancel their reservation at any time the folks on the waiting list will be contacted to let them know that seats have become available.

 As always Laurie and I look forward to seeing you at the show!  ~Tom~

Chatting about cooking

Quite a few folks at the last concert mentioned the cookbook collection in the kitchen.  I also got to chat with several of you about cooking; Laurie and I both love to cook!  If you're interested in cooking as well, you might consider following my blog "The Food And The Fun".  It mostly contains short entries about what I've been up to in the kitchen, but it also has some links to really good websites and other cooking blogs.Click here and you'll be whisked away (using a balloon whisk of course) to my blog!

Suggestions for HHCS

We are always thrilled to hear your kind comments about our House Concert Series, but we also encourage you to send us suggestions on how we can improve the events.  If you ever have any questions or helpful suggestions we do want to hear them.  You can emailor phone/text to Tom any ol' time- thanks! 

Next up: SARAH PEACOCK

Greetings intrepid music fans!

What a great season we've had in 2012, thanks to all our supporters both veteran and fledgling!

Our next show is FRIDAY OCTOBER 26 with SARAH PEACOCK.

Sarah Peacock is a powerhouse pop country vocalist and performer with a style reminiscent of Heart’s Ann Wilson and a boot-kickin’ twist of the Sugarland “country-ness.” Add a hint of classic rock on the palate, throw in the fact that her songs are melodic and catchy, and you’ve got a star in the making! 

Averaging over 200 dates a year, Atlanta native, Sarah Peacock tours full time to cities all over the globe.

 This is going to be a performance full of great energy.  A powerful song writer with pipes to match, we are excited to have Sarah come up north from Georgia to entertain you!  RSVP to hitthouseconcertseries@yahoo.com  --  See you at the show!

• Potluck dinner at 6PM (bring a dish to share)
• Show at 7PM
• BYOB
• Suggested donation of $10-15 per person (all donations go to the performers).

See you at the show!!  ~Tom and Laurie Hitt~

Yep, another great show! Thanks CHATHAM STREET!

The Hitt family and the HHCS audience were treated to another marvelous House Concert last night by  Chatham Street.  Thanks to Peter and Christal for making the trip to entertain us!  I'll be going through some video from the show soon, hopefully some of it came out.

 

NEXT SHOW will be a mid-week show (Wednesday August 22).  We've had many audience members ask for a repeat performance by Americana artists The Barefoot Movement.  You wanted it, we got 'em!  See you in August!!  ~Tom~

Hitt House Concert Series

The best little show in town!

HHCS presents Chatham Street on July 21

On Saturday July 21 HHCS will present (from Virginia) CHATHAM STREET

Tom Hitt met Christal and Peter at last year's Folk Alliance Festival.  After hearing them perform he knew they were a great fit for our HHCS audience.


Peter and Christal Prout's sound has been called "New Americana" and carries multiple musical influences, from old-time gospel, bluegrass, rootsy-folk, yet has the edginess of the contemporary rock and pop music they grew up with. Christal’s vocals are a cross between Celtic and southern “down-home”, and they soar over Peter’s tasteful vintage guitar, sounding just like her Scottish-Appalachian heritage. Together, they are a magical and refreshing combination.

• Our shows begin with a 6PM Potluck dinner; bring a food item to share if you'd like to participate in this pre-show get together. 
• The show will begin promptly at 7PM.
• Suggested donation of $10-15 per person.
• Please RSVP to hitthouseconcertseries@yahoo.com
• Limited seating, reserve your seat now.
