Show Description

“Think of it as the musical equivalent of walking into Ben & Jerry’s and saying: ‘I’d like a spoonful of everything, please” CREATIVE LOAFING. Two decades ago, John Tosco invited a few of his musician friends for an informal song circle/jam session in his living room. These “Music Parties” became a way to gather with friends and fellow musicians to create an evening of acoustic music. What began in Tosco’s living room soon moved on to larger venues.

In September 2006, to accommodate its growing audience, the event moved to the Halton Theater. The format of the evening is a performance of one or two songs by each of a variety of approximately 20 scheduled acts (professional and amateur) who donate their time and talent. The evening is an eclectic mix of all styles of music and includes Tosco’s trademark sing-alongs. It is a family event that still retains the original “living room” feeling.
