Embark on a unique musical journey at our seated "Bluebird Cafe" style event in Traverse City, MI on July 20th, 2024, hosted by The J Hawkins Band, and Backyard Music Co. Curated by billboard charting artist Scotty James, this intimate backyard concert unveils 2-3 accomplished songwriters in a Nashville-style writers' round, offering acoustic renditions of their country, pop, and folk-infused originals. The artists will take turns performing their original songs and telling the stories behind them. This unique opportunity offers an exclusive glimpse into the future of music, connecting you with undiscovered songs from new artists who are poised for greatness. The surprise lineup will be revealed via email a few days prior, amplifying the anticipation. While kids under 12 are welcome for free, please note that this event is primarily geared towards adults, ensuring everyone enjoys the concert in a seated setting, without distraction.
