Our Story: Billy & Erica
We moved to Northern California in 2020 and really enjoyed hosting friends for small house concerts in our apartment in Davis. Billy
is a composer and pianist originally from Cincinnati and house concerts provided a way for us both to meet neighbors and new friends though the joy of making music.
When we started hunting for a house to buy, concert space was high on our priority list. From the first moment we saw this historic bungalow in Woodland with its lovely backyard garden, we knew it was our “Blue Rose.” For Erica, blue roses always remind her of the china pattern on her grandmother’s dishes, fancy yet familiar. For Billy, the blue rose symbolizes a sort of supernatural beauty associated with creativity and a fascination with unknown possibilities, à la David Lynch. Events at the Blue Rose are familiar yet extraordinary. So come on in, make yourself at home, and get ready for a rare and beautiful experience...
