Today we are highlighting five burgeoning open Mic venues (in the greater Los Angeles area) that we feel every artist should attend. While most musicians would jump at the opportunity to skip directly to doing stadiums we’ll give you a couple leads on some more realistic locations until that time comes.
Canter's Kibbitz Room 419 N. Fairfax, Los Angeles, CA.
Located in the heart Los Angeles, Ca. Canter Kibbitz boasts an old town feel in a modern setting. The food aside the building itself serves as an obvious attraction magnet for attention (consistently bringing new clientele and potential fans).
Fais Do-Do 5257 Adams Blvd., Los Angeles, CA.
Fais Do-Do is another great venue conveniently located in city of Los Angeles. With open mic sessions held on the third Tuesday of every month, this spot provides a welcoming environment and well promoted showcase. Because the location doubles for a variety of other showcases it often brings out a diverse crowd, which is often a reflection of the performers.
The Gig (Hollywood) 7302 Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles, CA.
The Gig (West L.A) 11637 West Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA.
With two easily accessible locations The Gig is one the few locales dedicated specifically to performing. While the schedule for their open mics were not listed they state that information is available upen request. To acquire more info on their shows, call (323) 936-4440 for Hollywood and (310) 444-9807 west LA.
Hard Rock Cafe (Los Angeles) 8600 Beverly Drive in the Beverly Center, Los Angeles, CA.
The Hard Rock Café, which has been a staple in southern California for years, is but another tool for the aspiring performer. Until recently I myself was unaware that individuals could actual perform at the venue. According to their site they hold a Performance night every Tuesday, with Sign-ups starting at 7:30 p.m. and Shows beginning at 8:30 p.m.
Until next time…
