Open Mic @ Gadgetbox Studios

Description

Gadgetbox Recording Studios will host their first songwriter open mic night on Wednesday, August 18 from 7PM-9:30PM. Housed in their newly remodeled “grand room” the event will combine the intimacy of a house concert, with the superior acoustics of a professional recording studio.

Hosted by the Gadgetbox staff, each performer will be given a two-song or ten minute maximum time limit. The all-ages show will start promptly at 7:00 PM and performers are encouraged to arrive early and place their names in a fishbowl. Names will be drawn randomly to establish performance order. Gadgetbox will provide a standard stage set-up and sound engineer as well as usage of the Yamaha C7 grand piano. Performers will also have the option to be videotaped (in HD quality) free of charge and can purchase their raw multi-track audio from the event.

Owner Andy Zenczak beams, “it’s an amazing way to connect with and support the budding singer/songwriters of tomorrow. At its most foundational level, sharing an original song among your peers is an art that will always speak to me as a musician, and to be able to offer two evenings a month to provide the setting where so many great local acts have recorded is a very special feeling for me.”

With artists as diverse as Wooster, Aza, Sourgrass, Molly’s Revenge, San Narciso, Our Satori, Matador, and Honeymoon emerging from this local recording hotspot, Zenczak hopes the environment will serve as added inspiration to blooming songwriters of many musical genres.

A sliding scale donation ($1-$5) will be accepted at the door on the evening of the event.
