The
Folk/Acoustic Open Mic night at TCAN has been a tradition since the
opening of The Center years ago. And we could try to describe this
event by mentioning all the significant songwriters and talented
musicians who have played and sung and captured a special moment
in time.
But the TCAN Folk/Acoustic Open Mic night isn't about individuals
so
much as it is about a feeling. Hallways filled with artists tuning
vintage guitars, changing strings of steel and quietly rehearsing
fragments of lyrical poetry. Nervous first-timers hitting their stride
on a
high
note
or a magical turn of phrase. Seasoned veterans rediscovering their
music by sharing new songs and old favorites with appreciative audiences
of supportive peers. And the incredible, almost guilty feeling that
comes with knowing you're witnessing a one-of-a-kind experience that
exceeds all expectations.
All musicians
and spoken word performers are invited to participate in this weekly
event. Come early to sign-in as a performer, or to get a great seat
for one of the most successful and entertaining open mic nights on
the East coast. Each Folk/Acoustic Open Mic night features
a variety of new and experienced performers, followed by concert
presentations by the featured artist of the evening. Come and see
why TCAN has become the gathering spot to see and meet local artists
and nationally recognized touring performers.
