Bringing Acoustic Bistro to an end. - Message from KC Turner.

On February 20th 2012 Acoustic Bistro, a songwriters series in San Francisco at a quaint Italian restaurant called Osteria, was born. 3 1/2 years later, after nearly 200 nights and hundreds of singer/songwriters I have decided to bring what has been an amazing run to a close.

It all began with an idea that Andrew Guevara gave me one night at the Red Devil Lounge open mic I was hosting. Andy's girlfriend, Gina, owns Osteria and he works there. The idea was to take a dark night (Mondays) and turn it into a night of live music. I would curate, giving me an opportunity to book local and touring singer/songwriters, and gather in folks to appreciate what they have to offer.

During the first few months, Roem Baur, was the host of Acoustic Bistro while I handling the booking/promoting. Roem did an amazing job of starting a Monday night legacy. These forces joined together created a very special series. After bringing a Marin based open mic I was hosting to an end on Monday's, I took over as host of Acoustic Bistro and have since made Osteria my Monday home for over 3 years.

Hundreds of songwriters graced the carpeted area of Osteria to share their songs with us. They traveled from all over the USA, Bay Area and world to be with us for this special Monday night series.

On Monday August 3rd, we will have a celebration of what has been a ton of fun over the past 3 1/2 years and we invite YOU to come hangout and raise a glass to what has been a great run. Free Pizza will be served and special beverage deals will be available for purchase.

This PRIVATE celebration will be from 7:30pm till 11pm. To attend you need to email: [email protected]
