2011 - 2015
From its humble beginnings in 2011, Songbird Cafe—now Songbird Concerts—has been the heartbeat of acoustic music in St. Louis. The inaugural show on October 26, 2011, featuring Brian Henneman, Kip Loui, and friends, setting the stage for a series of unforgettable evenings that felt more like intimate gatherings than formal concerts.
Over the next five years, the one-night-only concerts blossomed into a cherished sanctuary, hosting soulful performances by icons like Connie Fairchild, Marshall Chapman, and many other brilliant artists. Each show painted a vivid picture of community and creative expression, with live moments captured in images that still spark nostalgia. The candid charm of every performance, from serene strums to spontaneous jam sessions, invited audiences to experience music as an authentic, shared adventure. Today, the legacy of those early years continues to inspire, echoing the timeless appeal of deep, heartfelt tracks and the enduring spirit of Songbird Concerts.
