House Concerts
Invite Innessa for an intimate house concert and create unforgettable moments with your friends and family!
A house concert is a unique and magical experience.
You bring your friends together, and Innessa brings the music. No fancy setup needed — just a cozy space, a few chairs, and maybe some nibbles or drinks. Some hosts invite guests to bring food to share. 🌮 🥗

When enough people in your area express interest, Innessa will plan a mini House Concert Tour in your region and contact you to arrange dates.
Once we confirm your date, everything else works the same –
$400 solo performance fee, two 45-minute sets, cozy atmosphere, and a night of connection through music.
What They Say
House concerts are an incredible way to support travelling musicians and bring music-loving community people together. I’ve personally made lasting friendships with such a diverse range of people who have attended my concerts, and also with the artists who have performed over the years since I started hosting concerts in 2016 in Hervey Bay, Australia. We have a lovely community in the Fraser Coast, and many of my friends also host concerts and festivals. We all support each other in our quest to make sure live original music in beautiful private surroundings is constantly available. Sign up with Innessa and enjoy a live show in your own place!
Kristen Young (the host)
With her beautiful melodies, poetic lyrics and sublime vocals, Innessa took us on a musical journey of her life, sharing personal stories and anecdotes behind each song she performed. From the choir songs of her childhood, to the traditional Slavic folk songs of her native culture, to her coming of age, her journey to Australia and how she used music and song to learn English — from her darkest moments to her most inspired and hopeful ones — this was honestly quite the journey. The electric guitar brought a haunting undertone to some of the songs, while the accordion and balalaika lifted the mood with their lighter, folky sounds. The pieces ranged from traditional to pop, moody rock, and her own beautiful fusion style. The cover of The Cranberries’ “Dreams” was a lovely surprise, and Innessa’s lilting vocals were evocative of Dolores O’Riordan’s. Not only did Innessa share her journey with this wonderful music and storytelling, but she literally brought us along by inviting us to sing backing vocals for a few numbers. This was one of the most peaceful, enjoyable, and enlightening evenings I’ve had in a long time — and I can’t wait for the next one.

I enjoyed it the concert immensely. I was emotionally moved and was surprised how through the evening Innessa created an atmosphere which celebrated togetherness and common purpose. Her songs touched on many shared values and the meaning of life.

The concert was (if simply out into one word) amazing! The atmosphere was incredibly cozy and warm. Your music touched me deeply, especially the song “Universe” – it simply makes one think about life and how important it is to be in the flow. Your calmness and professionalism were impressive. You inspired me so much with your stories about the difficulties and successes in music career that I’m now ready to pursue my own dreams! Your words about the importance of collaboration and support made me rethink my approach to life. Thank you, Innessa, for the emotions, inspiration, and unforgettable evening!
