Concerts in the Attic is a not-for-profit house concert series
hosted by Steve Long and Ed and Sarah Rogers. Held in the attic
(that's right, the attic) of Ed and Sarah's one-hundred-year
old house in Fort Worth's historic Fairmount neighborhood, the
series features top-notch singer/songwriters performing in an
intimate setting for an appreciative and attentive audience
of music lovers.
Concerts
are usually held on Sundays beginning at 5pm*, and are followed
by an acoustic song circle until 11pm. Guests are encouraged
to bring acoustic instruments, potluck dishes and their beverage
of choice. A suggested donation is collected during
each show, all going directly to the performer.
Seating for each concert is limited to 30 guests
and is by invitation only. To request an invitation,
please send an email, with the name of the performer in the
subject line, to Steve Long at steve@concertsintheattic.com.
* Guests are encouraged to arrive thirty minutes to an hour
prior to showtime so that shows are not delayed.
For directions, information or any other questions you may
have, please contact Steve
Long.

His song, Hard Livin' had already been covered by Joe Ely, and has since been recorded by Jerry Jeff Walker, Keith Whitley (Top Ten Country Hit), The Nighthawks and many others. In the May/June 2010 issue of American Songwriter magazine in the article: 50 Country Songs Every Songwriter Should Know his song Rain Just Falls was listed as #18.
