Event details

Open Mic with a real band! Your chance to be backed by a live band (or perform solo).

Open Mic: one or two people with or without the band backing you (your choice). No backing tracks! Booking essential (https://www.meetup.com/Melbourne-Music-Performers/pages/Information_for_performers_%28Open_mic%29) (see links below).

Half of the Open Mic spots will be available for email booking but you'll need to jump in fast! The other spots can be booked at Francesca’s on the night (usually at 8pm).

Open Jam: if you're not yet ready for the solo limelight, join in the Open Jams.

Bring your instrument: trumpet, sackbut, saxophone, guitar, recorder, serpent, harp, lap steel, accordion, harmonica, gamelan, ... even vocals!

No booking required. Grab a jam chart (https://www.meetup.com/Melbourne-Music-Performers/pages/Jam_charts/) and practise at home, if you like (see links below).
