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.

David Halley

 

Born in Oklahoma City and raised in Lubbock, Texas, David Halley now lives in Austin, Texas. Shortly after his arrival in Austin in 1983 he was featured with Townes Van Zandt, Butch Hancock and Jimmie Dale Gilmore in "A West Texas Songwriter's Special" on the PBS series Austin City Limits.
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.
