FOR MUSICIANS SEEKING A VENUE DATE:

We principally feature solo, finger style or flat picker guitarist/singer/songwriters (playing their original works) and typically Americana style of music. Under the Americana umbrella for us is folk, blues, traditional country, western, and soft or swamp rock. We do not book instrumentalists or cover groups.

We are normally booked through the end of the current season (Sept-May), and all of the next season with a waiting list for afterwards. We have made exceptions when we had an opportunity to book at short notice a musician who for us was elevated interest and whom we felt would bring something special to our audience and have added an extra concert.

Please look carefully through the list of musicians who have previously played our venue ("Previous Concerts" tab), also considering fully the information on this page, and decide whether your music genre, and your own style of play appears to be a good fit for us. If you think so, and wish to pursue a booking for yourself, please send a CD that best represents your style of play at a house concert to us at:

Hill Country House Concerts, 33,000 IH-10 West, Boerne, TX 78006

If the CD you submit does not list the composer of each song, please provide. In most cases it might be "all mine" or "all but...", etc.

If the CD has accompanying musicians, please list  the instrument/s that YOU play on each song, if not already on the CD cover art.

And if you have a DVD, whether professionally or self produced ("home" video is fine), of one of your previous house concert appearances or a smaller venue with an attentive audience, this would be ideal. 

Once reviewed, our next step is to hear live in a full concert those who have progressed on our list. A live headliner (not "in the round") performance is needed to confirm our interest and we only book dates subject to this important step.

Submissions from artists clearly outside our normal format and genres of music will normally not be considered. CD's cannot be returned.

Headliners receive 100% of the honorarium, so openers should look to "exposure" to new fans, "experience", and possibly CD sales as their motivation. For us, it is a chance to see and hear your musical and performance skills up close and personal.

We regret that we no longer offer repeat opportunities to the many wonderful musicians who have already graced our stage. As much as we would like to have everyone back, there are too many other musicians out there who also need a chance to show their stuff. We appreciate your understanding.

Please note that we are a non-audience participation venue.

Questions for us by email (see "Contact Us" tab above) please.
