Each year, we sponsor two or more SongShop Live group concerts built around a single theme. Each theme, such as Life at Home, Promise Me…, Dream a Little Dream, Flying, The Dr. Ruth Show, ties together our vast repertoire and song genres.
Since 2013, we have also produced Solo Sets featuring a smaller number of singers. SongShop Salon series brings a select group of performers for intimate house concerts . We welcome your interest to host a Salon concert. Singers and pianists who have joined our performances are listed here.
Please be patient while the gallery loads…it may take a few minutes!
