Crossroads Safehouse is continuing its successful live stream series Couch Concert: Live In Your Living Room on Thursday, April 30 from 6-8 p.m. This time the event will benefit Crossroads Safehouse as well as Voices Carry Child Advocacy Center. Brian Kittrell, of the local band Maxwell Mud, will be performing and taking requests through the live concert. The event can be accessed through Crossroads’ Facebook page (https://facebook.com/CrossroadsSafehouse) or the Voices Carry Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/VoicesCarryChildAdvocacyCenter/).
In an effort to provide socially distant entertainment during the safer-at-home orders, Crossroads has partnered with restaurants in northern Colorado that are currently offering takeout or delivery. The goal is to support local eateries while supporting the two nonprofits. The concert will begin at 6:00 p.m. It is free to watch, and song requests will be accepted through comments. Donations for Crossroads Safehouse and Voices Carry will be taken through each web page or through texting the word “couch” to 44321.
