Open Mic hosted by Barbara Cloyd

Open Mic is a weekly Bluebird Cafe tradition welcoming songwriters of all ages and genres to share their original music. Sign-ups are taken online the morning of the show, with the first 18 performers selected. Attendees can expect an evening filled with a wide variety of musical styles, with performances ranging from novice to semi-professional. Seats for this show are first-come, first-served. WE DO NOT ALLOW HOLDING SPOTS IN THE LINE. EVERYONE THAT WANTS A WALK-UP SEAT SHOULD BE IN LINE.
