Strings is a recording studio and performance showcase space located in the San Francisco Bay Area city of Emeryville. Featuring weekly performances by locally and internationally recognized acoustic musicians, who play for the love of their art and the opportunity to share it with a musically aware audience. During its seven year history of concerts, Strings has developed into an important musical resource for our community.
Strings has a living room atmosphere as well as an inviting courtyard and meditation garden.
These make for a unique musical environment for performers and audience alike. It's important to know that all expenses, including monthly calendar and postage, utilities, maintenance, etc., come from the generosity of our staff, volunteers and members. Musicians play for donations, no tickets are sold. No salaries are paid nor is there grant or foundation money to support our operating expenses. This is all done with the belief that it is important for artists to have a space where they can perform for people who truly appreciate their music.
