Forte Sunday Jazz Jam and Open Mic Night

Sun, Jun 01

Sunday nights will be for musicians of all levels to perform and gain stage experience and network with other musicians. Musicians of all experience levels are welcome to join the Sunday house musicians. If you play these instruments, pianists don't need to bring anything, Bassists will need their own instrument but will need to plug into the house GK Bass amp, Drummers need only bring a stick bag. In the interest of flow, switching out of snares and cymbals is not necessary. We have a house guitar amp that will be available. For those who wish to listen, come and enjoy many up and coming jazz hobbyists and students as they perform great jazz standards. Performers will be able to sign in at the door and list the tunes or what they wish to perform. For musicians, it's possible to call a tune on stage or fulfill a request from the audience but have an idea of what you want to perform so we can keep the music flowing for the audience. Singers, know your keys before you get on stage. If you perform spoken word, poetry, essays, comedy or theatrical monologues, please understand, we are a family friendly establishment. Subject matter and language need to be clean. Attempts to test this rule will not be tolerated. Audience member price is $20 online and at the door. Entry for performers is $10 at the door only. This does not extend to family and friends of performers. For this to be successful, we will need support.
