Secret Song Club
Welcome to Secret Song Club! We organize music parties, house concerts, and open mics in backyards and living rooms throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
We’re all about creating listening spaces where people can hear music with less background chatter. You don’t have to be a songwriter or a musician to attend. Everyone is welcome.
All donations go to the featured performers (or the charities at our benefit events). The only part of the club that’s secret is the location of our house concerts. To get details about our upcoming events, join our mailing list.

In 2024, I launched a YouTube series called Tiny House Concerts where I talk with musicians about how they’re simplifying their lives to create sustainable careers as indie artists.
The first episodes feature five of my favorite songwriters, Amie Penwell, Rick Hardin, Meredith Edgar, Austin Willacy, and Aireene Espiritu who came up to play songs and tell the stories behind them.
