Sarah and I are in the closing slot for the Anchorage Folk Festival Saturday night. Come out to hear some new music and a little older music…
Two accomplished and amazing bluegrass musicians, Erin and Andrew Heist, are in the House to preview our House Concert series for the year (officially opening with our show on March 1). I first heard them live at a House Concert in Girdwood last year and was blown away by their sound. So good that I immediately purchased Erin’s CD (yes, I have a CD player still…) This is exactly the pre-Valentine’s Day treat everyone should hear. You can listen to Erin and learn more here. You won’t want to miss these two folks straight out of Juneau on their mini- Southcentral Tour. Click here for more information and to RSVP. $20.00 suggested contribution, RSVP required.
Normally this, our performance, would be our opening House Concert for our annual series again on Iditarod Weekend - but we will have already had the February 13th performance of the delightful Andrew and Erin Heist! Though this will be the official traditional kick-off the series - with Sarah Sledge and I performing our original music. Watch for other shows in the series through out the Spring, Summer and Fall! Click here for more information and to RSVP. $20.00 suggested contribution, RSVP required.
Sarah and I are back at the Sitka Grind for some original music and a ten-word song! I’ve played the Grind for over 21 years, and always look forward to the audience and the “words” that they toss at me. Plus, this is the Original Artist Grind so Sitka is putting on the talent! A beautiful city, beautiful people, and a great time to be had by all. Bring a dessert or a small contribution to see the show. More information at: sitkajean@gmail.com
As part of a wider tour, Sarah and I will once again be performing just two songs live in Philadelphia at this incredible gathering! This is a scheduled, multi-artist event. For those interested, please e mail me at: tom@tombegich.com for more information!

There is a Zoom link as well for those who cannot make it to Philadelphia. Join the event and donate generously to the talented folks who perform!

Once again returning to Sitka for the Grind and a ten-word song! I’ve played the Grind for over 20 years, but took a few year hiatus. Now I am on my way back to this great southeast Alaska city with the lovely Sarah Sledge.

Its a fun night for the whole community as local acts perform their original creations in this, the Original Artist Grind! Bring a dessert or a small contribution to see the show.
