House Concert Hub Page: News Music and Video Footage.

Mars, Arizona, like many other American towns, has vanished, forced to shut down it's community due to lack of funds. Some blame the economy, some blame the state of the music business. Like the American Farmer, it just became too expensive to run the family business any longer and the town was auctioned off to an unnamed entity. This led to relocation and name change for the band known as Mars Arizona. Thus, "New American Farmers" was born. Like their namesakes, the Duo will have to learn how to survive by embracing new sustainable approaches to music production and delivery. They hope to renew Spirits, enhance environmental stewardship and improve the lives of their families as well as their community. No more cross country tours in gas guzzling vehicles or airplanes. New approaches to fan outreach will have to be developed. Stay tuned for a new chapter in the musical history of Nicole Storto and Paul Knowles.

ARTISTS: Its all go here on the hub if your interested in this kind of hands on support for booking your tour, promoting it and keeping in touch with your Audience where ever you are in the world please do get in touch. 

HOSTS: If you have shows coming up and want to advertise them on this community post them as an event, they appear on the front page here and on the front page at Flyinshoes Review, If you havn't as yet hosted and would like to let me know and I'll help with any advice I can.

HOUSE CONCERT GOERS: Thanks, this is the bottom line, if you don't go to the gigs all this tallent will wilt on the vine, house concerts and small venues are really making a differnce to the independently minded musicians of the world and I thank you on their behalf and those of of us who work for them. 

Thank you one and all.
