Rick Dougherty (Limeliters, Kingston Trio, Folk Legacy Trio)
Don Burnham (The Bolos, New Century Jazz Band, Lost Weekend Western Swing Band)
Rick and Don have been close friends for over fifty years, slinging their guitars, writing songs, and singing for audiences worldwide. The two veteran songsters join up for an old-style troubadour evening, on the eve of Don’s departure for Wellington, New Zealand where he’s been granted residency.
Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. Children under 12 are free. Advance tickets are available here, or if the show is not sold out, you may purchase your tickets at the door before the show.
Doors open 30 minutes before show time. We accept cash or Venmo only at the door.
The Back Room is an all-ages, BYOB (for those 21+) space, dedicated to (mostly) acoustic music of all kinds. You are welcome to bring your own food and beverages. The venue is ADA accessible. If you need more information or have any questions, please call us: #510-381-1997.
Please refrain from using your phone during performances, and if you use your camera or video, please disable the flash.
Although masks are no longer required, we strongly encourage their use to keep everyone safe in our intimate space.
Thank you for your support!
