Shenandoah Coffee House Series
If you enjoy singer/ songwriters and are looking to hear some live music close to home Shenandoah Acoustic’s Coffee House concerts are worth the $12. We saw The Dreamsicles last night, and it was a great night out in a beautiful setting! The female half of the Dreamsicles, Cary Cooper, sang a beautiful song about mothers and daughters that brought tears to my eyes (and I usually only cry at funerals & Hallmark commercials).
If you’re kids are the portable type and able to stay up late or fall asleep on you or a hard pew you can bring them. We saw kids both times we were there, but prefer to leave ours home with a co-op sitter.
The Unitarian Universalist Church of Loudoun hosts the series. This little church is the perfect setting for a small concert series… it is on a country road a few miles off route 15 just south of Leesburg, and it looks like it has been there forever. The acoustics are good (according to my untrained ear), and the ambiance is the perfect setting for an intimate performance. In fact it is so intimate it is hard not to talk to the performers over coffee and cookies during the break. I loved the cookies almost as much as the music.
