Harmony House is located down a country road through a tree tunnel. It is 10 miles north of Bonham, TX and about 65 miles NE of the Dallas area. Visit www.WildscapeAcres.com or Harmony House Concerts Group on FB to learn more about our venue. The concerts are held in the vintage reclaimed home reminiscent of possibly your grandparents'. Hosts are Faye and Scott, who have been welcoming music lovers and outstanding acoustic musicians/independent singer-songwriters into their home for "the love of music and community" for the past 25 years. Whether you are a "newbie" or a frequent guest, you will feel at home.
Faye and Scott will provide "bottomless cups of coffee" (The REAL DEAL) in the kitchen, tea punches and well water (not previously bottled, with no chemicals added) in the breakfast room, and a variety of cheeses & crackers and other munchies on the various snack tables throughout the house. Guests need to bring a finger food to share on the smorgasbord of treats. An optional $1 cash donation can be made in the breakfast room to help defray the hosts' expenses.
Dana will play two 45-minute sets with a 30-minute intermission between. This is a time to stretch your legs, shop the merch table (credit cards, PayPal, Venmo accepted), and empty your bladder or fill up your mugs/glasses/plates. It's also a great time to get to know Dana and other guests.
