OVERBEARING BUT IMPORTANT NOTICE:
You are entering our property at your own risk.
There is simply no way we can protect you and your family from every conceivable hazard lurking on our three acres. If you see something that is dangerous, let us know, and we'll try to mitigate it, but by entering our property, you agree to assume all risk involved in your activities. If you want more information on what kinds of hazards you may encounter, please ask us. We have included a partial list at the end of this page, but it is not comprehensive.
What is a House Concert, you ask?
A house concert is just what it would seem to be...it's a concert at our house. It's in our backyard, actually. The musicians play on our deck under the big oak trees. Our music loving friends stake out a spot in our spacious backyard, get comfortable, relax and enjoy the music. If you've never been to a house concert, it is a great way to see talented, renowned artists in a private, intimate setting.
How do I get invited?
Our shows are private events that we host for our family and friends, but that doesn't mean you can't get invited. If you like the same kind of music that we do, then we'll probably make pretty good friends. You can get an invitation to a show through the main page of this website. Invitations become available about two weeks before each show. You send us a note through the front page "Invitation" form and we send you an invitation. We limit the size of our shows so it isn't always possible to always get an invitation. (If there's no "Invitation" form on the front page, that means the show is full.)
What should I bring, you ask?
Whatever you would bring to a beach party.
* Folding Chairs
* Blankets
* Bug Spray
* Sun Screen
* Food and Beverage of your liking. Please Drink Responsibly.
* Friends and Neighbors
* And a little bit of spending money for artist donation and to buy a CD or T-shirt
The suggested donation may vary by artist but usually it's around $20 for each adult. Kids under 18 are free. 100% of your donation goes to the artists.
What's the catch, you ask?
We want everyone to have a great time at the Wyldwood. So we've come up with a few house rules:
* RULE #1 - Respect the musician, those around you, and our property.
* Well behaved children (and adults) are always welcome, but please review rule #1.
* Sorry, no dogs. They poop. And they eat our chickens.
* Smoking permitted, but no littering.
* Please pick up your trash. Let's keep it clean.
* Play nice.
Who are you, you ask?
Andrew and Amy Murphy.
We live in Deep South Austin...aka The Wyldwood...aka The Woodpecker Ranch. We love and support all kinds of music, but frankly we've gotten tired of the club scene. Henceforth, we are bringin' the music home. If you haven't been to our house yet, let us invite you over.
