ConChord (Convention)

 Organization

Biography

ConChord was a filk con serving the region of southern California. It branched off from the third FilkCon West in 1983 and ran, with a few interruptions, until 2015. At that point it was considered that there was not sufficient demand for filk in California to justify hosting both ConChord and Consonance (in the Bay Area).
