A house concert can be defined as a musical event presented in someone's home or a nearby private space such as a barn or backyard. It is a chance to introduce singer songwriters to an audience in a setting where people are gathered to focus on music. RSVPs are required and donations collected go straight to the performer.

Kevin Welch was born in Long Beach, California but grew up in Oklahoma, where he played in a popular regional band, Blue Rose Cafe, before moving to Nashville in the late 1970s. He became a songwriter for Tree International. His songs were recorded by such artists as Waylon Jennings, Roger Miller, The Highwaymen, The Judds, The Kendalls, Patty Loveless, Reba McEntire, Charlie Pride, Ricky Skaggs, Pam Tillis, Randy Travis, Conway Twitty, Don Williams, and Trisha Yearwood. Kevin's poetic songs paint pictures of real people--people you know, people you've seen--so clearly that you realize quickly he's a keen observer of the human experience. His songs have an almost film-like quality in their vision and beauty. In 2009, he recorded A Patch Of Blue Sky, his first solo project in 8 years. The recording features Texas musicians as well as his son Dustin, who played banjo and slide guitar, and his daughter Savannah, who appeared with her band the Trishas. www.kevinwelch.com
