Embrace the Unexpected

Find the hidden and historical ASU Kerr for live music and arts in the heart of Scottsdale! Global music, jazz, indie folk, classical music and soul concerts plus storytelling, comedy, theater shows and more are in the spotlight at our one-of-a-kind space.

Built in the late 1940s and 1950s, the adobe house of Louise Lincoln Kerr is a funky, unexpected space to hear live music in near Old Town Scottsdale. The brainchild of a trailblazing violist and composer, ASU Kerr is a place for adventurous music lovers to discover fearless and surprising artists in a relaxed, eclectic space.

Rooted in Louise’s tradition of inviting musicians and guests to relax and enjoy her picturesque Southwestern home, we invite you to hang out, discover something new and embrace the unexpected.
