Takoma Park Open Mic

Takoma Park has LONG needed an open mic to showcase the talents of the local denizens, but betwixt the reopening of Everyday Gourmet (reimagined into a Lovely restaurant and bar), the support of Dave Eisner (owner of House of Musical Traditions and board member and founder of Institute of Musical Traditions) and the hosting prowess of local artist rob Hinkal (of ilyAIMY) - we're going to rectify the issue on May 30th!

The Monday night open mic at Everyday Gourmet (6923 Laurel Ave, Takoma Park, MD 20912) starts on the last Monday of this month. Signups begin at 6pm (call me at 301.910.2575 or show up early to get a slot), performances run from 7-10pm. Good drinks, delicious dinners and talented local artists - what else could you want?

10 minute slots / 2 songs a piece, walking distance from Takoma Park Red Line Metro Stop (and House of Musical Traditions!) - for more questions drop me a line at rob@ilyaimy.com! The open mic will be 21+, family friendly environment, no drumkits!
