If you are a musician and are interested in booking at Fiddler's Dream, you can send a myspace message, or email our booking person at nia@yellowdogs.com for more information. Please keep in mind that we are TOTALLY ACOUSTIC ~ so no sound system, no mics, no amps or electric instruments are used. (We do have a great piano for use by our performers, an electric Yamaha.... but we had to change our charter to be able to use that!) It is a great room and the audience really pays attention to the performer and the music. We offer a $10 stipend to performers for each 45 minute set, and each set has a dedicated tip jar; performers also keep all proceeds from CD sales. We are always amazed and inspired by the many wonderful musicians and afficianados that visit Fiddler's Dream - we'd love to meet you and provide a place for you to share your music!

Very nostalgic place for me. Oh Fiddler's Dream! I did my first recording there between your wooden walls in 1996 and then had it reproduced on cassette tape. We are now in Seattle but playing shows in Phoenix this January. Come by to listen and say hi. This is my new project with my husband Dave. Or anyone up for a house concert?

Three-time Grammy Award winner Tom Chapin is a gifted entertainer who charms audiences of all ages. Anyone who has seen him perform knows what Billboard Magazine means when they say he is “one of those natural-born entertainers who, with nothing more than a guitar in hand, can totally captivate.” Tom’s concerts span generations and stereotypes, and he has gained widespread critical and popular acclaim for his recordings aimed at children (ages 4 to 11) and their families.
All proceeds benefit the Southwest Center for HIV & AIDS, formerly Body Positive.
Thank you so much for letting me come down and perform!! The venue was beyond wonderful! Everyone was so nice and unlike other venues, I really got a sense the audience actually cared! I hope to visit you all again! Much love! Jess
