PASA House Concert Series

One of the longest running house concert series in the Philadelphia Area, for more than 20 years, PASA has presented its members in a true house concert setting. Since its creation by Rob Lincoln in 2000, more than 150 different performers have performed as a co-headliner.

Each concert features three PASA members as co-headliners, plus 8 to 12 "Open Chair" performers. Anyone who wants to play an original song can be an Open Chair performer. These shows are in round robin format, one song at a time and the Open Chair slots not only begin the show but also occur at the end of every round. There are usually seven rounds with an intermission in the middle.

NOTE: Doors open 30 minutes before concert start time. Please arrive early so we can start on time!

Erik Balkey and Annie Donahue

According to Erik, "Erik Balkey and Annie Donahue sing songs, and think that's fun. Besides singing in their living rooms, they have taken the show on the road to the next town over and played the open mic in Barrington. People clapped. But, that that is customary and they were likely just being courteous."

Terry Rivel

Terry Rivel writes songs about folk heroes, dates from hell, as well as songs about ordinary people, some living and some gone. There are warm vocals and strong guitar style, blending folk, country, pop, bluegrass, and rockabilly. Poignant songs and lots of humor in his performances, too! Terry's most recent CD, "Broken People", has received airplay nationally.
