Desert Valley House Concerts, formerly Cedar Valley House Concerts,

was originally born in 2008 in Iowa from the serendipitous collision of purchasing a spacious 1924 Dutch Colonial, the desire to open an acoustic wine cafe without the means, and the lucky introduction to a musician setting up a house tour.  Literally, we were a house.  Once we hosted our first show in 2008, we knew immediately this is what we were supposed to do to support the arts, sharing music with the public and bringing it closer to the fans in an intimate setting, all while providing a much needed break for touring musicians. Now located in the East Metro Phoenix area, near the Superstition Mountains, think of us as a private listening space where we welcome music friends & fans and ALL donations go to the artists.
