Who we are
The Sleepy Hollow Folk Club is a house concert venue in Northern Virginia,
about 10 miles from downtown D.C. Approximately four to six times a year, we host in
our home live performances by accomplished musicians -- usually
singer-songwriters -- from all over North America.
Beginning with 11 friends in
our living room in the cold winter of 1996, our performances have moved with us
into the "stereo room" in our new house, and our audiences run from 30
to 50+ guests. We are an informal, non-commercial venue. We host our concerts to
help support "folk" and "singer-songwriter" musicians and to
provide our audiences with the chance to hear, and meet, these talented
performers in an intimate, comfortable setting.
The music broadly falls within the contemporary folk
and singer-songwriter categories, although we're open to other styles.
Who we’re not
We are not a business. All donations for tickets go to the performers.
Also,
although we are happy to offer a place for musicians to play and to display
their CDs, T-shirts, mailing lists, and the like, we don’t stock or sell our
performers’ CDs after their shows are over. You will need to buy their CDs at
a music store, on-line, or from the performers themselves; we’ll be happy to
give you their contact information.
Mascots
Our feline mascots are Mausele, Nougat, and Skye
Macbeth. All have short hair and are not constant shedders,
but if you're allergic to cats, you may want to take your medicine before you
come.
| Nougat
often prefers to watch from the cabinet tops -- watch for her acrobatics.
She has become a bit more discriminating in her appearances. Here Nougat is helping us answer some of the
many emails we've received about upcoming shows - don't worry, she reads
all of them. |
Mausele
usually enjoys working the crowd. Lately trying to get in on the
act. |
