House concerts have been around as long as folk music itself.  Before there was amplified sound, small concerts would take place in churches, meeting houses, barns, homes, you name it!   Music was not only a form of entertainment, but also a means of spreading news and culture. 

Today, house concerts are not uncommon in the folk world.  There are house concert series all over the country, often hosted by families dedicated to converting their home into an intimate live music venue on a regular basis.  

We believe the community surrounding Adam and his bandies is incredibly inspiring and capable of doing things never done before in the music world.  7 years ago we experimented with our first house concert tour, allowing any fan to become a host and sending Adam to 30 homes around the country.  It didn't matter that many had never even heard of a house concert before.  If people were crazy enough to try it, we were crazy enough to say yes. 

The experiment was not only a success, but has now turned into an annual tradition that is one of Adam’s favorite adventures each year and metaphoric of everything we believe about the power of community.      

Starting in December, Adam will play in as many homes as a guy with two little daughters at home can pull off, and due to high demand to see Adam solo, we will also be adding some shows at larger, more traditional venues.  These concerts are a chance to hear unreleased songs and the stories behind your favorites, different arrangements of songs you've heard with the band, and tributes to songs written by some of Adam's favorite songwriters.  Not only is the Get Folked Tour a chance to learn more about Adam and his music, but it's also an opportunity to connect to other AEG fans in your area in a concert environment unlike any other.    

Don't be shy!!  Even if you’re not ready to be a host, most of the Get Folked concerts will be open to the public, so keep an eye on our tour page for these shows and come check 'em out!
