Host your own Private House Concert!
What is it?
A Private House Concert is almost exactly what it sounds like: an
exclusive, personal and intimate show for you and a group of friends in
the comfortable surroundings of your home or backyard.
How does it work?
Most often, Private House Concerts are hosted in one of two ways:
In a traditional arrangement, the host would provide everything for their guests from food to drinks to entertainment.
In a more contemporary arrangement, each guest would "purchase" a
ticket to the show (usually between $10-$20) in order to help cover the
cost of the exclusive concert. This hosting method is often combined
with a BYOB and/or potluck component allowing every willing host to
throw a memorable get-together in an extremely economical manner.
Why a Private House Concert?
There are 3 main benefits to hosting a Private House Concert versus
buying tickets to one of Ms. Nussey's shows. First, as host, you and
your guests will never have to strain to hear a verse and will always
have the best seats in the house! Second, the money saved on drinks and
food makes this a highly economical way to enjoy a great show. And
third, you will always receive exclusive interaction with Ms. Nussey
before, during and after the show!
What you receive:
A two-hour live performance by Angie Nussey where audience interaction is not only appreciated - it's expected!
Full sound/staging set-up to ensure you and your guests receive the optimal experience.
A half-hour signing session post-show to ensure each of your guests has
the opportunity to interact with Ms. Nussey and obtain a personalized
autograph.
*Special Gift* - As host, Ms. Nussey would like to extend her thanks by
presenting you with a full CD box set of her music (including her
limited edition first demo CD) as well as your very own "I got
Nussey'd" T-shirt. (For T-shirt sizes and selection please visit

Here are a few words from those who have already hosted:
“In March 2008 we had the pleasure of hosting Angie Nussey at our house
concert, she totally exceeded expectations. Our crowd latched on to
Angie and her music, it was like finding your long lost friend. We
will definitely host her again and again”.
Cecilia F., Calgary, AB
"Angie Nussey has performed twice for us at The Lodge on Amherst
Island. She has a lovely voice, and her lyrics span the emotions from
the comical to the complex. Each time we see Angie, we are impressed
with the evolution of her musical style. She is a delightful person, as
well as a talented performer!"
