APCT - JACK DESBOIS

Album Project & Concert Tour

Announcing my debut solo album, released October 2024:

My Brother, My Sister, My Kin

A selection of traditional English, Celtic, and American folk songs; Christian songs and hymns; and originals for solo voice and guitar.

I'm also planning a concert tour to share the music from my album, starting fall 2024. I'll be traveling to churches and other venues to play for intimate audiences in beautiful sanctuaries and halls.

I'm looking for churches and other venues to host concerts. These concerts are free to church communities; I do not charge a fee to the host church, nor do I sell tickets. (For venues over an hour drive from Topsfield, MA, I request a travel stipend from the host church.) To fund this ministry, I will sell albums and accept freewill donations at each concert on my tour. Please contact me about playing a concert at your church or venue.

Next Concert:

Sunday, November 16, 2025 at 4:00pm
Ward Hill Church of Christ the King in Haverhill, MA
Free - All Are Welcome!
