Reviews

“A Place to Land are two of the most wonderful, gracious, and talented people and entertainers I’ve met. They’ve played several times at my restaurant, and we always look forward to the next time we see them. They expertly cover songs from an increasingly disappearing generation and culture of music, and it’s just so comforting to see two people keep it alive with such passion. Highly recommend for any event.”

Details

Brian Maier and Rebecca Hicks are retired teachers living in the rural Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Brian was a special needs preschool teacher in the rural area of Luce County Michigan. Rebecca was a dance instructor in the metropolitan area of Northville, Michigan.

4 years ago they formed the duo A Place To Land, since that time they have done an average of 50 shows a season (June through October) in the Eastern Upper Peninsula. While performing at Farmers Markets, Festivals, Restaurants and Tourist Attractions they noticed how much children and older people gravitate to their performance of historical songs played on acoustic instruments.

In the off season they began to perform at Senior Living Facilities and Schools to share their love of music and their vast collection of acoustic instruments. Their personal collection includes 25 acoustic instruments with 18 available to be used by the audience in the interactive experience.

The Format

The H.O.M.E. PLACE experience is one hour long broken up into three sections. Section one is a 15 minute performance of a combination of current and historical Folk, Country, Bluegrass and Americana songs that illustrate the different genres of music that use acoustic instruments.

The second section is 30 minutes of the audience being able to join in by playing one of the many acoustic instruments made available by H.O.M.E. PLACE. These include guitars, mandolin, banjo, violin, cigar box guitars, cajon, maracas, shakers, and bones.

The final section is an opportunity for the audience to take a quiet moment to examine the instruments and talk with the musicians about what they experienced.
