Each month, Jacobs Gallery transforms into an intimate concert setting - just 136 guests - where legendary songwriters take the stage to perform the hits you know and love, and share the stories behind them.

Your evening begins with a one-hour cocktail party, featuring heavy hors d'oeuvres, beer, wine, and champagne. Mingle with fellow music lovers, enjoy the atmosphere, and then settle in for an extraordinary live performance.

Every show features an opening act to set the tone, followed by our headlining songwriter, performing for 75-90 minutes in an up-close, personal setting unlike anything else in the region.
