East Side Acoustic Ensemble (CD release)

Guided by singer-songwriter Ritt Deitz, the East Side Acoustic Ensemble is assembled through open auditions to gather and create new music. Who will be participating in the spring session concert? The best way to find out is to attend the show, which comes with a couple side benefits: the first 80 attendees will receive the new CD The East Side, and half your ticket price will be donated to Ukraine relief efforts by Project Hope.

press release: East Side Acoustic Ensemble Spring 2022 performance. $10 at the door.  First 80 people get a free copy of new ESAE CD, "The East Side." The CD will only be available at this show!

The East Side Acoustic Ensemble (ESAE, pronounced "easy") is a pop-up acoustic ensemble based in Madison, Wisconsin. ESAE usually features about twenty seasoned East Side musicians, from formerly pro to semi-pro to currently pro, all of whom pass open auditions then gather twice a year for eight weeks to create a fresh set of acoustic music. Every roster and season show is different, and songs range from country duets to bluegrass to full-ensemble renditions of Wilco. The ensemble is led by singer-songwriter Ritt Deitz.
