On The House: North Shore Point

Jim Morrison, a veteran journalist from Hampton Roads, has been putting on concerts at his Norfolk, Virginia home for years. His backyard has grown to become the area's often sold-out venue of choice for national singer-songwriters and unplugged rockers.

Morrison’s North Shore Point   House Concerts convinces  Grammy-winning troubadours and acclaimed up-and-comers to perform on his lawn, and they always come back. The likes of Steve Forbert, Garland Jeffreys, Chris Smither, Kelly Willis,  Todd Snider, Della Mae, Marshall Crenshaw, Chuck Prophet, Lloyd Cole, Alejandro Escobedo, Peter Case, the Blasters’ Dave Alvin, and many more.

Read my Virginia Living Magazine story on Morrison's promotions, and how North Shore Point is now partnering with the Virginia Arts Festival to bring even more live music to Tidewater.
