Concerts

Homestead often sponsors or co-sponsors concerts in the Twin Cities.  Any upcoming concerts are listed on the home page.  If you're curious about whether something you heard might be coming up, but it's not listed here, please can call us at (612) 861-3308.

Twin Cities Acoustic Music Calendar

Jim Whitney has provided such a remarkable service with his new event listing that it would be foolish for Homestead to to try to keep up with all of the events in and around the Twin Cities.  We'll continue to provide selected alerts here, but be sure to use the Twin Cities Acoustic Music Calendar for an overall view of what's happening in acoustic music.  Jim even provides an electronic alert newsletter option to which you can subscribe.


Concerts, Shows, Gigs and Events.  From fall to early spring is the "high season" for many of the concert venues which cater to acoustic music.  You can find a collection of upcoming -- and mostly acoustic -- events at Twin Cities Acoustic Music Calendar.  We wanted to do a listing like that on the Homestead site, but Jim Whitney has done such a fine job that it would be redundant to try to do something else.  For some specific venue schedules, check the following web sites.

New Folk Collective
Cedar Cultural Center
Minnesota Bluegrass & Old Time Music Association

Ticketmaster
OK, Ticketmaster isn't a venue at all, and we all hate the "extra" fees.  However, Ticketmaster will list almost every major and many lesser events in the Twin Cities, so it is a useful resource for finding out what's happening.

"At Homestead Pickin' Parlor, meeting the musical needs of acoustic music
fans has never been an afterthought. It has always been our only thought."
