CITA fans and patrons,
We hope you'll join us for what will officially be our last show. After more than 15 years of producing house concerts, Steve Long and I are hanging up the Concerts in the Attic name and moving on to new ventures. Come celebrate with us and let's make that last song circle one to remember! We couldn't be more pleased to host the amazing Gary Nicholson for our last show! Gary is a hit songwriter, two-time GRAMMY winning producer, recording artist, world traveling performer and session guitarist. This will be a fantastic show! Steve and I would like to thank everyone for making our little house concert series such an overwhelming success! There's far too many of you to list, but be sure we are grateful to you all. Extra special thanks to Sarah Brink of course. You are the heart and soul of CITA. Thanks also to Terri Hudson and Gary Newell for giving us temporary homes and to Matthew Williams and all the great folks at Southside Preservation Hall for allowing us to be part of your historic endeavor. Most of all, thank you to all the incredible artists, too many to list here, who graced our stages. You have touched our lives beyond measure. We never had a bad show. Not one. Thank you all for the past 15 years! It has been an absolute blast making this happen. Much love, Ed |

Bring a potluck dish if you'd like. We'll have a table for the food with paper plates, napkins and plasticware. We'll have a song circle immediately after the show. Feel free to bring your instrument and join in (no percussion please). |
