Open mic is a great opportunity for musicians starting out to gain experience not only from the live audience feedback, but also from the musicians hosting the open jam. This is a great place to break into the local music scene and share musical talent while gaining confidence.

Seeing musicians come together at an open stage can become a once-in-a-lifetime epic performance you don’t want to miss!

OPEN MICS TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR:

The Listening Room Mobile Open Mic

This one is ongoing, I just usually don’t know about it until it is too late to share the information.
Acoustic Open Mic, hosted by Sarah Marie Dillard. It is often on Tuesdays, but has been popping up other days of the week as well.
As the name suggests, locations vary. This is a uniquely intimate open mic that encourages active, supportive listening when artists are performing.

Harmonize Peoria Garage Band Open Stage

Outside. Starts up in late spring or early summer. Rotating hosts. Full backline. All Ages. Artists under 21 are encouraged to attend/play. Instruments available.

Friendly Valley Open Stage

Outside. May replace the open stage at Kenny’s Westside for the summer. Full Backline. More details when we get closer.

Perdue’s Grill

When Megan Maroney is home on break from college, she often holds an acoustic open mic here, usually on Wednesdays.

If you know of one we don’t have listed or some info we need to change, the fastest way to get it fixed is to message PML through Facebook.
