WALTZ OPEN MIC SHOWCASE
TUESDAYS
& WEDNESDAYS
Free-formed open mic series hosted by Waltz' Music Curator Song
Gonzalez, welcomes musicians of all styles and backgrounds. Contact openmic@Waltz-Astoria.com for more information.
A little history:
The very first open mic session began on Wednesday, Nov. 16 of 2005, hosted by Bill E., co-founder
of Waltz. 3 people attended the session, and 4 years later, the night is packed with musicians and often goes into the wee
hours of dawn. The process is simple, you sign-up, and you play. Our new host Song (Waltz-Astoria) has an amazing
way of making every musician feel comfortable and special. This is not just you everyday open mic, we're working hard to make
the night feel more like a real showcase. We believe that the art of performing are perfected by creating a situation where
the artists have the full control over the stage and the audience just as they would doing a solo show. Often times, extraordinary
talents are discovered at our open mics and are offered spots in our specialized showcases and featured presentations. Open
mics are the first step for musicians to get their feet wet, and the open mics @ Waltz is the ONLY way towards self discovery
and stardom.
Note:
Keyboard players - No need to lug your keyboard here because we have a beautiful Steinway
grand waiting for you!
