September Open Mic Night: FULL BAND Edition! Hosted by Lolabelle

About this event

@ Free Admission! Doors open at 6:30PM Join us for a special Full Band Edition of Open Mic Night at One Longfellow Square! This month, we’re turning the stage over to full bands for an evening of live music, collaboration, and community. Lolabelle will host the evening, and kick things off with a few songs before the open mic begins! Please note: this month’s event is designed specifically for pre-formed bands. We’ll provide the backline, but you’ll need to bring your own band. There will not be a house band available for individual performers. How It Works: Band sign-ups are required in advance through our online registration form. Showtime: 7:00 PM – 9:30/10:00 PM Each band will have two songs or 10 minutes on stage, whichever comes first. Space is limited to 8 bands. Our featured performer will play a 20ish minute set around 8pm! Sign Up Here! Performer Notes: We’ll have the following equipment set up and ready to go: Drum kit (please bring your own snare drum and cymbals) Two guitar amplifiers One bass amplifier Keys if needed! The goal is to keep changeovers quick so we can fit as many bands into the evening as possible. Bring your band, support your fellow musicians, and settle in for a fun night of live, local music!
