Sawyer Fredericks, Season 8 winner of The Voice, just released a concert video.

Over Memorial Day weekend, Sawyer Fredericks returned to one of the venues where he got his start, Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs, New York.

The Season 8 winner of The Voice played three sold-out shows, and the best of those performances has been turned into a 90-minute concert video.

That 90-minute concert video, plus bonus interview footage, is now available for view at vimeo.com for $5.99.

The press release announcing the concert video promises both old and new music. So presumably, you’ll hear some of the songs that are going to be on Sawyer’s upcoming album, “Hide Your Ghosts.”

And half of the proceeds from video downloads will go toward restoration efforts at Caffe Lena, which dates back to 1960 and is billed as the oldest continually running coffeehouse in the country.

Caffe Lena is in the middle of a $2 million renovation project to reinforce the floors and foundation, modernize plumbing and electrical systems and make the venue more handicapped accessible. A 105-seat listening room reopened in December.

Sawyer used to perform at open mics at the coffeehouse and was eventually hired for an opening set at age 14, before he landed on The Voice.

Of course, if you’d rather see Sawyer in person, there will be plenty of opportunities in the coming months. He’s already launched his “Hide Your Ghost” tour with a stop planned at the Hard Rock Cafe in Pittsburgh on Friday.

Accompanying him on tour is Season 8 cast mate Gabriel Wolfchild and The Northern Lights. They released a fine EP earlier this year.
