We are a network of musicians who bring music into our communities to places that need it most.
ABOUT US
We believe that live music has the ability to sooth, heal, connect, and inspire. For those in our communities living through hard times, rarely is there a chance to share in that experience. It is often that places such as senior homes, homeless shelters, hospitals, in home care, etc. are overlooked as live music may seem like an indulgence. We couldn’t disagree more.
Further, a community is at its best when all those in it are sharing their time and efforts in a way that aligns with their own personal passions and gifts. Even now there are musicians in your local community that are just waiting for the opportunity to serve to bring joy and life through their craft.
This organization exists to bridge that gap.

WHAT WE DO
LIVE GIGS
We play good music for good people!
GigsbyHeart will meet with you to learn about your organization, and the audience’s musical preferences. We will then assemble the group of musicians.
​
On the day of the performance, our musicians will come fully prepared with all the instrumentation, A/V, etc. They will take care of all setup and tear down​.
​
Finally there is NO COST to your organization, as we're paid in smiles.
TELE - GIGS
Grab your headphones, here comes your own customized gig!
When an in-person performance is not available, we will offer a virtual gig. It begins with a get to know you call, where we’ll hear your story, and get an understanding of what you’d like to hear.
​
From there we will recruit the musicians and schedule the performance. On the day of the performance, we will provide the teleconference meeting, as well as use the latest engineering techniques to ensure optimal enjoyment.
CUSTOMIZED SONG
It's like going to a museum, but you're the only one let in!
Possibly the most challenging and most rewarding, we want to write an original song for you! It begins with a conference call, where we’ll hear your story, your musical history, and what certain past songs have meant to you. We will recruit the musician and let them do their thing!
When the song is complete, we will schedule a teleconference with you and the artist. They will share the song writing process with you, and of course perform it. We‘ll record the session so you can play it anytime.
