Your House, Their Spotlight

Directly support your favorite local bands and singer-songwriters when you host a CouchConcert alongside your loved ones

As venues vanish and opportunities for gigs dwindle, musicians are left without a stage. CouchConcerts is changing the game by bringing live music back to intimate settings where true connections are made.

CouchConcerts helps you create invite-only shows where everyone feels right at home—literally. Hosts provide a warm, personal atmosphere while musicians share their stories and guests are gifted with exclusive front-row seats.

“Our goal is to increase the number of places for artists to perform by transforming living rooms, backyards, or any cozy space into venues where music lovers come together to enjoy live performances,” says founder and entrepreneur Ted Dimbero. “Whether it’s a quiet acoustic set or a lively performance, the experience is entirely customizable.”

For musicians who feel like they are missing out with noisy bars and casual crowds, CouchConcerts offers a refreshing alternative: an engaged, supportive audience who are there just for the tunes. Plus, the artists keep 100% of fan donations.

“By attending a CouchConcert, you’re directly supporting the artist, knowing that your contribution is going straight into their hands. You spend less, the artists earn more, and the experience is unforgettable,” says Dimbero.

When you turn your living space into a concert venue, you create lasting memories with your friends and family while giving musicians a valuable stage to perform on.

“By creating a nationwide network of house concert hosts, CouchConcerts is not only preserving the tradition of live music but enhancing it,” says Dimbero. “This platform democratizes the live music experience, making it accessible to more people, whether they’re musicians looking for new opportunities, hosts eager to support the arts, or guests who want to enjoy music in a more meaningful way.”

“It’s about taking control of how we experience live music and ensuring that artists receive the support they need to continue creating.”
