Little Tree Acoustic House Concerts

... so the good spreads out to where no telling it will go.
Little Tree Acoustic is a house concert series in Lafayette, CO dedicated to creating an intimate listening space for talented singers, songwriters, and performers. Come experience music the way it should be experienced. Magic happens here.

Little Tree has enjoyed a phenomenal lineup of shows that have included inspiring songwriting, animated story telling, expert musicianship, and moving poetry. Click on the images below for a sample of past performances.

Upcoming Shows:
17 May 2013 - Michigan-born Navy veteran Drew Nelson is a storytelling songwriter and multiinstrumentalist. A fly fisherman and world traveler, Drew writes as a witness to the lives and journeys of those he has met along the way, mixing Americana and roots-rock with traditional folk styles. You can confirm your seats for Drew's show (and for "Dinner with the Band" beforehand) by prepaying here. You can find this event on facebook and share it with your friends here.

Dinner Before the Show: Once again we have arranged to have dinner prepared and served by Local Italian Chef Valerio Castellano before the performance. You can see Valerio's planned menu here. Valerio has pledged to keep the price low at just $15 per guest, which is an incredible deal! I'll donate a bottle of wine, but that won't be enough for everyone, so if you want wine with your dinner, please feel free to bring some. Dinner will be served from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. You can learn more about Chef Valerio Castellano by visiting him at his facebook page here.

21 June 2013 - Justin Roth is a nationally touring singer/songwriter and fingerstyle acoustic guitarist who combines an artful blend of hooks laid on a bed of brilliantly inventive guitar technique, bridging contemporary and indie/alt folk. He has toured with John Gorka and opened for some of the finest singer/songwriters, including Shawn Colvin, Martin Sexton, Darrell Scott, and David Wilcox. His guitar playing has earned him shared stages with some of the greatest fingerstyle players of today, such as Tommy Emmanuel, Andy McKee, Billy McLaughlin, California Guitar Trio and Pat Donohue. Roth’s fan-funded fourth solo album, Now You Know, which he recorded, produced, played and sang every single note himself in his home studio, was recently voted as one of the Top 100 Folk Albums of 2011 by Roots Music Report. “Fans of Leo Kottke or Michael Hedges will find themselves right at home with Roth's intricate guitar work…beautifully written lyrics.” - San Francisco Art Magazine. Confirm your seats for Justin's show by prepaying here. You can find this event on facebook and share it with your friends here. Note: Because Valerio will be off gallivanting across the Italian countryside - he said something about a vacation, geesh! - dinner will not be served for this show. Valerio will be back in his apron beginning in July. You can keep an eye on Valerio's holiday shenanigans on facebook here.
