Our musical open mic is one of Savannah’s favorite. We have been voted Best Open Mic by Connect Savannah. Bands and singer/songwriters of all genres are welcomed to join in. Our participants include newly formed bands looking for stage experience, professionals working on new songs, musicians looking to jam with others, touring bands routing through, and those who just want to be a part of Savannah’s music scene.

    Open Mic Policies:

     

    • Music only. No poetry, comedy, acapella, free-style, etc unless with a backing band/musician. SORRY, WE NO LONGER ALLOW BACKING TRACKS. There must be a live musician playing on the stage.
    • Duos or groups cannot sign up in a row for multiple turns under each person’s name. Come’on.
    • Performers can sign up again at the end of the list once their turn is over and others have performed.
    • Please do not move the monitors, adjust the mics (because it damages them if they’re not adjusted properly,) or get on the stage before you are called.
    • The venue is 18+. Under 21 attendants must leave their ID with the door or bar staff and cannot drink before or during their visit or be subject to legal consequences.
    • Be considerate and watch some of the others’ sets!

    NOTE: The hosts may call musicians up out of order. The hosts can make any decisions to uphold the spirit of the rules and create a better experience for all. If they feel any policies are being deliberately skirted or taken advantage of, they may prevent this by making changes.
