About Full Moon Barn Dance

Hosted by Leeann Atherton, Austin performing artist that loves to share space to introduce new music to the community. Feel free to contact her with any questions.

This community event celebrates the original music of Austin and the world beyond; with friends, dancing, and a potluck dinner to share. The special guest artists and the. occasional full moon make for a howlin' good time.

Barn Dances occur on occasional full moon Sundays (sometimes Fridays and Saturdays, too!) and some holiday Sundays (SXSW, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Mother's & Father's Day). Each Barn Dance has its own unique personality and YOU are a crucial part in creating the magic.
