The Best Seat in the House Might Be Your House


Traffic happens. Babysitters fall through. Sometimes the siren song of the sofa is irresistible. That doesn’t mean you have to miss the music.

We livestream select Salastina performances throughout the season, bringing the concert to audiences across town, across the country, and around the world.

You still get the concert. You just don’t have to get yourself there.
