We'll see you in the fall for Season Six

Season Six Has Its First Two Shows Booked!

Renovations are underway at the ol' concert hall. But that doesn't mean that we plan on skipping Season Six! In fact, we have the first two shows of the season lined up already. Mark your calendar for what promise to be two outstanding concerts.

Saturday, October 3, 2009 we present Fran Snyder and David Glaser. Fran's making his way out east here from his home in Kansas, while David's making a little trip over from Annapolis. Both of these gentlemen are outstanding musicians and together they'll make for one first-rate house concert.

Then on Saturday, November 21, 2009 we present Joy Ike and Laura Tsaggaris. Joy's coming down from Pittsburgh bringing one of the freshest Indie sounds I've heard in years. And we're welcoming Laura back to Bonnie Branch, hot on the release of her newest record, Keep Talking. Joy and Laura will bring a hoppin', high-energy show to town.

We're also in talks with several musicians locally out of Baltimore for a winter-time showcase. Stay tuned for more information on that as plans are finalized.

SPECIAL NOTE: We've registered a new domain name... BonnieBranch.org! So now you can find us at either concert.ryansimmons.net or bonniebranch.org and e-mail us at ! Don't worry, you won't have to change any of your links or address book entries, because the old versions will always work. But now there's a new option when you tell your friends about us.
