About this Event

We are excited to announce a special concert series, an opportunity for the community to come together in sweetness on a more regular basis.

Introducing...2nd Sunday Sofa Sessions at The Back Room in Berkeley!

Expect sweet sounds from super talented musicians, a laid back atmosphere, and cuddles on the venue's super cozy all sofa seating,

A perfect way to end a weekend. Come tuck yourself in with us.

Lydia Violet is an Iranian-Armenian-American folk multi-instrumentalist, revolution-bringer, culture-tender, grief-worker, and mischief-maker. With her live band, she weaves together her songwriting, folk standards, Iranian ballads, 3-part harmonies, fiddle tunes, banjo, and collective singing into an altar of music for the troubles of our time. She'll be sharing a "stomp 'n sing" with lively back and forth between soulful songs and songs that bring in the audience community singing style, in an inclusive and accessible way.

Tickets are available on a sliding scale: $35, $40, & $45. 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 one half hour 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.
