Zeppelin in the Dark with Award Winning Austin Violinist

Step into a world where music and shadows dance together.

We'll explore the music of Led Zeppelin through new acoustic arrangements shaped by jazz, rock even chamber music influences.

You'll hear the songs you've loved for years unfold in new ways featuring award winning violinist Will Taylor, acoustic guitar, and cellist Tony Rogers.🎶

Surrounded by the warm glow of candlelight 🕯️ in a serene yoga studio, this is more than a concert.

It’s an experience.

For over 35 years, thousands of discerning experience-seekers have stepped into the imaginative world of Will Taylor, delighting in performances that blur boundaries, awaken the senses, and reveal music in unforgettable, unexpected ways.

Original music by show creator Will Taylor, inspired by Zeppelin will be woven throughout the performance, adding a unique layer to this journey.

If the first show sells, out we'll add a 2nd one at 845pm

This is no ordinary music event.

It begins and ends in darkness, with live music and a poem or two wrapping around you like a cozy blanket, soothing your soul.

🧘‍♀️ Bring your yoga mat or a pillow, lie back, and let the shadows on the ceiling tell their own story. Chairs will also be available for those who prefer to sit.

"The music and setting was "other worldly"

Will, last night's show was magnificent. Now I remember why I felt at home when I came to Austin in 1980. There is something precious here, (Holy, actually) and you are a part of that. Thank you. Shara T.

What is Concerts in the Dark all about?

Concerts in the Dark offers a unique and transformative way to experience acoustic music by reducing or completely eliminating light, giving the listener the opportunity to immerse themselves entirely in the experience.

This innovative series celebrates the purity and intimacy of acoustic music, creating an environment where every note, rhythm, and resonance takes center stage. By tuning out visual distractions, audiences are invited to engage their senses more deeply, fostering a profound connection with the music and its emotional core.

Most of our concerts include a short meditation at the beginning. At some events, guests bring blankets and/or pillows, and sit or lie on the floor to experience the music in a relaxing posture, while the musicians walk around the room.

🚗 Parking?

Free in the parking lot next to the baseball field on Toomey Rd.

👤 Are children welcome?

Kids are welcome! For this show, everyone needs a ticket but, anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Please keep in mind that this is an event where the focus is on the music, and might include meditation. So we value peace and an environment of non-disruption for all that are paying to have this experience. This isn't a club atmosphere where there is talking over the music. That being so, we do have a separate area where you can take the kids if they or you need a break.

🪑 What's the seating like?

Regular seating is on a first come first served basis.There will be a circle of chairs provided for guests wanting back support. The floor will be available for folks that bring yoga mats and/or pillows. GOLD VIP Tickets get you reserved yoga matt spots front row by the musicians, and all VIP tickets holders get early access to the space.

How dark is it actually? We turn off all lights at the beginning of the concert for the first few songs, light a single candle, and then have darkness for the last 2 songs.

Is this a sober event? YES! No Drugs/Alcohol, Smoking, No Phones, No Camera/Video, and No Scents please

Can I volunteer to get in free?

Yes, we have 4 positions for volunteers that begin 1 hour before the event and include helping set up the space, checking people in and cleaning up after the event is done
