HomeDitty to stage Stoner shows, forms spinoff to do public pop-up shows
HomeDitty home-concert booker Katie Byers has forged a deal with Des Moines Performing Arts to stage public concerts at Stoner Theater (part of the Des Moines Civic Center complex) in a series called “Stoner [Un]Plugged: HomeDitty Artist Showcase.” She also has formed Little Ditty Productions to stage pop-up concerts featuring independent musicians in small venues beginning next year. The first Stoner show will feature Detroit-based Americana group Escaping Pavement on Jan. 6. Seating is limited to 125 for the show.
