We are so excited and proud that they will be at the Raven House for our April concert! If you haven't had the chance to hear Emma's music until now - man, you should come :) If you have, well we don't need to convince you. Food will be on the table at 5pm, concert starts at 6pm! Street parking is plenty! Bring a dish if you feel like it :)
