Grab a drink and join the fun.
And don't forget to play along at home with our new feature:
Lockdown Open Mic - The Game
We're pretty much at capacity for performers at the moment, but if you'd like to be considered for a spot in a future week, please send me an email (pete@lockdownopenmic.club).
We're a group of musicians who, by and large, found eachother on the internet at the beginning of the 2020 lockdown and have been performing via Zoom every Tuesday night since.
We started Lockdown Open Mic as an online version of our favourite local open mic nights. Over time we've grown into an amazing community of performers, audience members and new friends.
We're a friendly bunch, and with zero pressure for members to perform at all (we have plenty of people who just join for a weekly dose of live entertainment)
I love running Lockdown Open Mic every week. I do it because I love y'all, I truly do.
There's a small cost to hosting the show and I'm more than happy to foot that bill, but if you wanted to buy me a beer, I'm absolutely not going to complain. I'll buy you one back when we all get together.
We're pretty full at the moment, but if you'd like to be considered for a slot, please send me an email (pete@lockdownopenmic.club).
We use Zoom for the Lockdown Open Mic - an app available for every platform, phone, tablet, desktop, smart fridge, lawnmower etc. (Click here for tips on using Zoom for playing music and make sure you enable 'Original Sound)
Before each event, I’ll put a link to the Zoom room on this website and it’ll be in the calendar invite too. Then you just need to turn up any time from 8pm (UK time), turn on your camera, mute your mic, then if you want to perform let me know in the Zoom text chat and I'll put you on the list - just like a real open mic!
We'll do one song per performer at a time and move around the group to keep things flowing.
Every open-mic I’ve been to in real life has been friendly and welcoming. This one will be no different. To ensure that, I’d like all attendees to follow some simple, common-sense rules.
