Founded in February 2013 by Jason Burke, The Six Pack Songwriter Series has one mission: to introduce audiences to singer-songwriters who call Virginia home. Encompassing a diversity of style and subject matter, this event intends to surprise and delight. Be sure to visit www.sixpacksongs.com for event updates, pics, and more.

About Erin Lunsford: Erin Lunsford is an accomplished singer-songwriter from Charlottesville, VA. Her bluesy, soulful voice and her crafty songwriting have earned her the first place prize in both the Charlottesville Paramount Idol and the Rapunzel's Songwriting competition. Her roots are in bluegrass, but her voice spans many genres from soul to R & B.

About Matthew McAllister: Matthew McAllister is an independent folk singer/songwriter. He was born and raised in Charlottesville and is deeply rooted in its music scene. Matthew began writing songs at age 13. Currently, Matthew is focusing on writing and performing mostly solo material, occasionally accompanied by violin or lead guitar. Whether touring, busking on his hometown street corner, or beneath stage lights, Matthew tries to play his music with sincerity and passion, and hopes that listeners are moved by it.

About James Harris Moore: James Harris Moore, the son of a Nashville singer/songwriter, writes and performs music split between the twang of Ryan Adams, the loneliness of Sun Kil Moon and the distortion of Uncle Tupelo. He has recorded under various projects. His first band, sawgrass, released an album titled, "The Archipelago" in 2008. He records and posts songs at jamesharrismoore.bandcamp.com. Living and playing music in Charlottesville, he is currently working on a new solo album produced by Sam Wilson from Sons of Bill.

About Susan Munson: Singer/Songwriter Susan Munson lives in Charlottesville and is involved in many musical projects. She is a regular at The Local’s Monday songwriter’s night and performs songs that have a country feel, leaning into the blues. As a member of Jeebus, Susan writes many of their songs and they have just released their first CD Threads: www.facebook.com/jeebus. Susan sings in the Grateful Dead cover band Alligator and an offshoot of that, Unlimited Devotion. Susan also lends her voice to Howard Johnson & Friends.
