"  . . . that's what's best about house concerts,
the closeness we all need and so seldom get.
. . . house concerts represent folk music to me, it's folks."
Michael Hough - Mustard's Retreat

A Music Under the Pines house concert is a great way to experience the music of talented Michigan and national artists in an intimate home setting located in Haslett MI, and hosted by Ben Hassenger and Barb Sears. Coffee and soft drinks are provided, guests are encouraged to bring other beverages and a dish to share with fellow audience members. You must request an invitation to attend,
as space is very limited.

Below is an example of what goes on here at Music Under the Pines, this video features Jason Dennie playing "Sittin' on the Bank":
