Come early to enjoy happy hour from 5-6 pm. Due to the enthusiastic numbers of talented people that have come through our doors in recent months, we've been trying something new. Every potential performer will put their name into a hat, starting at 5:00. Approximately 20 names will be drawn by host and scheduled/announced in that order. Music will run from 6:00-9:00. Late arrivals may not have a chance to perform. We'll be using the main stage in the auditorium upstairs for great sound & cool lighting! Lots of comfy seating, too. Each act will perform for no more than 10 minutes (no more than 2 songs). That 10 minutes includes any talking (song introductions, stories, plugs for gigs, etc.) Please have your instruments tuned & be ready to go! Covers and originals are WELCOME!
Not ready to share your stuff yet? No pressure. Please come anyway, support your fellow artists, and enjoy the wonderful Alberta Abbey drinks, pizza, & welcoming vibe! While there is no cover charge, please consider making a donation to Alberta Abbey, if you're able.
P.S......we've started a MainStage Open Mic Facebook group page for sharing with a wider audience. Please check it out and sign up to join! Look for photos of performers there each month!
