The Listening Room
Intimate Acoustic Concerts at The Origami House
Capacity under 50 • Floor seating & cushions • Bring your own blanket, cushion, or low chair
At The Origami House, music becomes more than entertainment—it becomes an experience.
The Listening Room was created for artists and audiences who crave something quieter, closer, and more meaningful than a traditional concert setting.
Here, musicians play unplugged or softly amplified, offering acoustic, heart-forward performances that invite you to truly listen. The space itself—once a house of worship—holds sound in a way that feels warm, resonant, and deeply personal.
These concerts are intentionally small, allowing guests to settle into a living-room atmosphere where the boundary between performer and listener dissolves. Each event feels like being welcomed into someone’s home: conversational, intimate, and spacious enough for the music to breathe.
Whether it’s a singer-songwriter sharing stories behind the songs, a classical guitarist offering a candlelit set, or a duo exploring acoustic harmonies, The Listening Room cultivates an environment where presence matters as much as performance.
A place to gather.
A place to listen fully.
A place where music—quiet, honest, and beautifully human—can unfold.
Upcoming
Yolonda Lavender
Friday, September 25
Doors @ 6:00 | Show @ 7:00
On Friday, September 25, we welcome Yolonda Lavender to The Origami House for a special evening of music.
Yolonda Lavender is an internationally recognized creative whose artistry is from the soul.
As a vocalist, performing artist, composer, arranger and songwriter with five studio albums to date, Yolonda’s artistic offerings span well over 20 years.
Like many, Yolonda’s first introductions to art were as a child from her heavily artistic family. From libraries and museums to church, travel
and summer’s in the South, this soul based, blues, jazz, gospel and hip hop influenced creative has had a wealth of exposure and experiences that have manifested the talented and intentional artist we know as, Yolonda Lavender.
Join us for an intimate evening with Yolonda Lavender, where her voice, her stories, and her music can be experienced up close, in a space created for truly listening.
An Invitation to Artists
We built The Listening Room with a dream:
that it would become a place musicians talk about—a hidden gem whispered from one artist to another…
a room they long to play.
If you’re an artist who loves intimate settings, attentive audiences, and the kind of acoustic clarity that’s hard to find, we welcome you here.
The Listening Room offers:
-
A warm, sacred-feeling space designed for true listening
-
Audiences who show up to connect, not to talk over your music
-
A room that holds sound with natural resonance
-
Fewer than 50 guests—close enough to feel, spacious enough to breathe
-
A chance to share stories, inspirations, and raw, honest moments between songs
-
An environment where your artistry is honored
Artists often tell us this is a space where they can exhale—play the songs that matter most, explore new ideas, or return to the heart of why they make music in the first place.
If that calls to you, we would be honored to host you.
Consider this your invitation to become part of something small, sacred, and unforgettable.
