Concert Series

Music My Mother Would Not Like

Every week, Bruce and company present a live stream concert on Zoom featuring three nationally or internationally touring artists. Each episode is different from the previous and the upcoming. Artists perform from their home, their studio, or the road. We have had performances from hotels, houses, and even a truck stop!

Each artist plays for about 25 minutes and receives and even share of donations. This is not "in the round" format. Audience registration is required for each individual concert. Find our upcoming concerts below!

JAIME MICHAELS

Veteran songwriter Jaime Michaels has released 11albums ... He tours in the US and Italy ... Sing Out magazine said of his writing, "Jaime Michaels' songs are as elusive as smoke and mirrors...His voice raspy with sadness and longing, Michaels pens contemporary tunes where love shines from within like a falling star..." Jaime has just released a single written with Jeff Talmadge called "in my home" about maintaining hope in a world shut down.

RJ COWDERY

Rj Cowdery grew up along the Ohio River, in a small hardscrabble Appalachian town in southeastern Ohio.  She writes songs that speak truths many of us feel but are unable to put into words. Her melodies and lyrics are compelling, emotional, inspiring, and introspective. While they have a personal feel, they also have a universal appeal because they focus on themes like taking chances, belonging, creativity, and being our true selves. These are the struggles we are often afraid to deal with, but when Rj describes them, it can give us courage. Combine the meaningful lyrics with her masterful guitar playing – sometimes delicate picking and other times hard-driving percussive strums – and it’s no wonder that her musical career has been soaring for years now.
