Due to the pandemic, we've had to cancel all indoor concerts. But we're offering live jazz concerts in your yard! Soon we'll be adding blues and other musical forms. If you've been thirsting to see live music again, this may be the way for you. We send bands on local "tours" that stop in your yard, play a set, and then move on to the next house. It's affordable for you and it provides much-needed income for working musicians who have had to forego live

performances during the pandemic.

We follow and even exceed government safety guidelines. Holding the concerts outside is obviously the only way to go.

We also require everyone, including the musicians, to wear masks and practice 6-foot social distancing. We also keep the number of guests low and make sure food and drink are consumed far from the band and other guests. We're very strict about

this. Hopefully we'll be able to lift these

restrictions in the not too distant future!

Hosting a YardWork Concert is easy. Just tell us your preferred concert listed above

and your neighborhood in the DC area.

Email that information to us at and we'll get right back to you to fill in the details about how the concerts work and hopefully work out a concert for you.

Coverage of YardWork Concerts in the

Washington Post is here and here.
