RE: The Historic Ritz Theatre Welcomes Back Open Mic Monday
Toccoa, GA – August
12, 2019 – Are you a little bit country, a little bit rock n roll, or
something in between? If so, it’s time
to showcase your talents at the Third Season of Open Mic Monday at The Historic
Ritz Theatre. The competition will begin on Monday, September 16 at 7pm and continue
on the third Monday of each month through December, culminating in a Winners’
Showcase in January.
This year’s competition will differ from previous years
with each month featuring a different category for the competitors. September will be reminiscent of The Voice
with solo artists using only guitar or music they provide on a jump drive as
accompaniment. October will be filled with pickin’ and grinnin’ for Bluegrass night.
November lets competitors flex their singing and songwriting muscle by using
only original material. December brings the Battle of the Bands. The winners
from each month will be brought back in January for a Talent Showcase.
Each month contestants can play up to two songs or for
ten minutes. Winners are chosen from a panel of three judges and are awarded
$50 plus a paid gig at the Ida Cox Music Series in the summer of 2020.
The monthly competitions are limited to 10 contestants
each. Registration is free and competitors can sign up either at the door, no
later than 6pm the day of show, or on-line at ritztheatretoccoa@gmail.com.
For more information on the performance, please contact
Ritz Theatre General Manager Tami Mayhugh at tmayhugh@cityoftoccoa.com or via
phone at 706.244.0039.
