Open Mic is Back!

So, open mic has officially resumed at Rev Coffee under the new ownership of Nick. I'm no longer officially running open mic. I do help out as needed and love being there when I can, but due to other commitments, I do best as an assistant.

This past week was fantastic fun. We had around 7 different players/groups, all of which played a variety of music in the acoustic rock and country genres. We had mostly originals with just a splash of covers, mainly non-mainstream covers. If some of the performers had not said "so this is a cover...” no one would have realized the performer hadn't written the song themselves.

The next Rev Coffee open mic is Wednesday, January 7th. If you find yourself needing some good music to listen to or want to get some jam time in with the regulars, come on out to Rev that night and I'm sure you'll find exactly what you’ve been looking for... :)
