An intimate Living Room Concert with Kelita playing piano and singing is an inviting way for women to come together in someone’s home for an evening of music, laughter and engaging conversation.

Book Kelita »Living Room Concerts
Kelita’s "Living Room Concert" is an opportunity for people who love live music to open their homes for her to perform in the intimacy of a living room setting. The host with a room in their home big enough to seat 20-60 people invites their friends, relatives, co-workers, and neighbors to attend a full length professional music concert on a given evening. Attendees are asked to make a donation, usually $20-25, which goes to Kelita. Often finger foods and beverages "pot luck" are available before and after the concert so that guests, Kelita and the host can mingle and socialize.
The host has the honour and pleasure of presenting an intimate musical evening right in their own home. The audience members enjoy a concert of up-close-and-personal live entertainment which inspires everyone who attends. Kelita enjoys the satisfaction of singing for a live audience face to face while sharing the stories behind her songs, making new acquaintances, and being able to support her musical endeavors through her concert and CD’s.
Kelita supplies a keyboard and small sound system but if you have a piano that is well tuned and accommodates your space well then Kelita would love that.
“I love doing women’s events! They are one of my favorite things to do and the intimacy of the Living Room Concert is always a unique way of meeting new people and introducing them to my music. I love inspiring people in any kind of setting”.
