Started with one impromptu livestream by @thechrisbarron. Now it’s a whole thing.

A Friday artist showcase. Weekly, intimate, live-music shows.

An organic community coming together to lift up musicians and enjoy music.

An organic team coming together to make it possible.

This started as just a Twitter post on a lonely, depressed Friday night.

“Can we find something to do together tonight?”

Now, The Herd is a thriving, welcoming community of people connecting around live music.

I have been blessed with the passionate help of a team of good people.

They have helped me take this from a one-man scramble to an informal organization with bigger plans.

There is no money in this for any of us. We’ve paid out of our own pockets to tip the artists and cover our few expenses.

But it is a labor of love.

It is a labor of fellowship and shared values.

And on Fridays and Saturdays it isn’t a labor at all; it is just a joy.

The Herd is still in its infancy. We’re growing and learning and and expanding.

There is a seat for you.

By just tuning in, you add your energy.

Some people just listen. Some people chat. And both are great.

Stop by some night. We have a hell of an April planned.
