Details
Great music! Wonderful musicians, great volunteers and a great cause. Proceeds from the Susanna's Kitchen concerts go to help people in our community who are in need, through Barnabas Connection, Wimberley Community Assistance Fund, and other Wimberley-area nonprofits, plus scholarships for pre-schoolers at Bright Beginnings.
Great food! Delicious pies, tamales, pizza, coffee, and soft drinks available. Doors open by 7:00 pm. Concerts start at 7:30 pm and are held in the Fellowship Hall at Wimberley United Methodist Church.
Great Cause! We all benefit – those who come to hear the best music in Wimberley, those who have a great time volunteering their talents to produce the concerts, and the people who are helped by our donations. Mark your calendars for every Third Thursday year round.
Tickets are sold ONLY AT THE DOOR. Tickets range in price from $20-$25 depending on the musician. Cash and checks are currently accepted. Students under 18 are $5. Concerts are not appropriate for small children, as there is no childcare.
To ensure a good seat, and as some concerts sell out, come early! Ticket sales begin by 6:30 pm. Arrival between 6:30 pm and 6:45 pm is suggested, especially for very popular musicians. Doors open by 7 pm. and performances are in the community room (Fellowship Hall). Come early, enjoy dinner with us and enjoy the concert experience in a small, intimate environment. Oh, and don't forget that Susanna's Kitchen Concerts take cash or checks at the gate, but not credit cards or other methods of payment.

Lynn Crossett
May 21, 2026
Lynn Crossett travels between Central Texas and Southern California performing songwriting-focused Indie Americana music. In a follow-up to his 2022 album, In the Company of a Song, which debuted at No. 6 on the Roots Music Report Top 50 Americana Country Album Chart and stayed in the top 10 for eight weeks, he is back working with Grammy Award-winning producer Lloyd Maines on his latest release, Autumn to August. Released on June 20, 2025, the album debuted at No. 4 on the same chart and reached No. 1 the following week.
A remarkable achievement for a first and second album.
“Lynn Crossett pens songs about longtime friendships, realizations that come on over time, and that nagging sensation that finding yourself isn’t about where you reside, or where you roam. They’re all brewed in a Texas style Americana.” (Elise Cady, Americana Highways)
"Lynn Crossett began playing music while he was also beginning his professional journey as a college student in Austin, Texas. The highway that he hopped on leading him to success in the legal profession always had a parallel service road toward singer-songwriterdom. He now lives in San Marcos, Texas and teaches there full time as a law professor at Texas State University. …
"Getting better as a musician and singer has also been an ongoing pursuit for Lynn, but songwriting has remained his primary focus. 'The artists I admire the most are really good songwriters,' says Lynn. 'They may not be what we would consider talented singers, or have naturally pleasant sounding tone of voice, but they deliver wonderful songs. I’m more drawn to those artists because I probably identify with that more myself.'” (Dan Walsh, Americana Rhythm Music Magazine)
“Blending elements of folk, Americana, and indie storytelling, Crossett crafts songs that are introspective, heartfelt, and resonant with emotional truth. A former Austinite now rooted in California, Crossett’s music has been called “Leonard Cohen meets the West Texas wind.” His songs explore love, longing, loss, and transformation, and his latest album In the Company of a Song has garnered praise for its raw intimacy and literary depth.” (Bernie Larsen, Ojai Underground)
“With rootsy melodies, authentic lyrics, and a genuine passion for crafting songs that resonate, Lynn Crossett proves that it’s never too late to follow the road to music—even if it runs parallel to a very different kind of career.” (Steven Doyle, Crave DFW)
With the release of Autumn to August, Lynn is embarking on a full-time music career and a more ambitious national and international touring schedule in 2025-2026 following his latest album release in June 2025.
