Secret Song Club
Welcome to Secret Song Club! We organize music parties, house concerts, and open mics in backyards, living rooms, and wineries around Sonoma County.
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.

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.
