..YARD CONCERTS..

The pre-concert BBQ begins at 12 noon. Hamburgers and veggie burgers will be provided at no cost and you are welcome to bring other items to grill. Please bring a side dish or dessert to share and your own beverages.

Music will begin at 1:00 p.m. and there will be 3 performers. I have an awesome sound person with a pro sound system who will create a very professional show.

It has always been customary to pass around a donation jar several times during the day. Suggested Donation is $20 or more. I ask that you contribute what you can and please be generous. 100% of the donations are divided between the performers at the end of the day.

If you are interested in attending a Yard Concert, please send an email to cindydbuck@gmail.com with the subject Yard Concerts and your email address. I will put you on my mailing list.

If you are a performer who is interested in playing a Yard Concert, send an email request via Myspace with the subject Yard Concerts, include your website and email address. I prefer to book performers that I have seen play live so let me know when you have a show in the area.

..HOUSE CONCERTS..

“Cindy's House Concert Series” kicked off in January 2009 and wrapped up March 2009. Shows are on Saturdays, start at 8 p.m. and feature two performers. The suggested donation for each concert is $20, with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the performers. Due to the limited seating for these shows, reservations are required and can be made by sending an email request via Myspace or to cindydbuck@gmail.com .

Staged inside my home, in a more intimate setting, my intention is to create an atmosphere that is both inspiring and pleasurable for the artists to perform in, as well as engaging and enjoyable for the listener.

..REVIEW OF MAY 24th YARD CONCERT by Nusi - Live Music Reviews: ..

“Cindy Buck has become one of the best promoters, supporters, and presenters of independent music in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her focus is on showcasing and providing venues for female singer-songwriters and female-fronted bands, though this is not exclusive, as several top male musicians have also performed at her venues. One of her greatest achievements is her yard concert series, which is held in the backyard of her home in the East Bay hills. The large, grassy yard boasts a large stage, professional sound system, a BBQ lunch, lawn chair seating, easy-access facilities, and well-worth the sliding-scale entrance fee, all of which goes to the musicians performing for that day. On this day I had the privilege of watching three amazing acts who demonstrated a wonderful diversity of music styles”

“This yard concert was amazing, and Bay Area concert-goers can look forward to two more of these fabulous productions, as well as several other shows produced by Cindy and shows produced in conjunction with WomenGig and Fabulosa Fest Women's Music and Art Festival. All lovers of live music should make a date to attend these concert venues and support these wonderful and highly enjoyable independent musicians!”
