\nHOW DOES THIS WORK?
\nSign up for open mic is at 7pm \u2013 space is limited so arrive early to ensure a performance slot. Each performance should be a maximum of 2 songs (10 minutes), but you are welcome to perform a single song. The \u201copen mic\u201d portion of the evening will start at 8pm, and run until 11.
\n*
\nAre you funny? Can you balance an upsidedown broom in your palm for an unnatural amount of time? Non-musical performances also welcome!
\n*
\nWHAT IS THERE?
\nPressed will provide the PA system and 2 microphones. Please keep your setup simple, streamlined and concise. Please bring your own instruments (or coordinate to share with a friend), and provide your own pickups if required.
\n*
\nEnjoy meals and snacks from our bistro menu and try some of our local beers on tap!

Dreamshell:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dreamshell is the product of a long-time collaboration between friends Johnny McArthur and Eric Moore. Over the years, the duo\u2019s music has evolved into what is now their searing, lo-fi sound. Their music exists at the intersection of shoegaze and psych rock, with experimentalism always at the forefront.<\/p>\n
