NOT YOUR AVERAGE OPEN MIC -- Tosco Music Open Mic is held on *first Tuesdays* of every month at The Evening Muse in the NoDa area of Charlotte, NC. Doors open and sign ups begin in person at 6 PM. Performances now begin at 6:30pm.NEW TIME!! Now at 6:30 PM (Doors at 6PM)

Each Tosco Music Open Mic enjoys a unique gathering of music lovers of all kinds -- you might see a 9 year old stun you with his a capella version of a soul classic, a 70 year old surprise you with a sweet ballad, a 40-something banker-by-day, singer-songwriter-by-heart share an original song, or a trio of teens take the room by storm with unexpected skill and talent.

Tosco Music audiences are the most enthusiastic supporters of musicians of all kinds, and first-time performers of all ages are especially welcomed.

We never know who we'll see or what special gifts of music we'll be treated to -- come enjoy the music, or share your own!

Sign ups start at 6 PM. Anyone can sign up to perform! Performance slots are first come, first pick, although order may be slightly rearranged to accommodate young students who need the earliest times slots.

osco Music Open Mic presents all genres of music and provides a supportive, family-friendly open mic with kids performing as well as adults who play or sing their own music or covers. Please note this is not a spoken word or comedy open mic.

We provide a PA system with 4 microphones, 2 DI boxes, drums, bass amp, a keyboard, and one music stand. Drummers should bring their own cymbals (including hi-hat). Live music is preferred, but singers can email a track to the sound tech when they arrive at The Evening Muse the night of their performance.

The Evening Muse collects a cover charge of $5 at the door that goes to the venue. Guests under 17 need an accompanying adult to enter.

The Evening Muse is at 3227 N. Davidson Street at the corner of 36th Street in NoDa.
