Attention songwriters and musicians, a new open mic is town. We have been facilitating a Tuesday WEEKLY open mic and workshop, every TUESDAY for artists to hone and share their amazingness and receive feedback for over 3 years now!

If you wish to share an original of yours, awesome. If you want to play a cover, great. You may want to just share an idea with a band to see what it sounds like. That's great. This open mic is designed for collaborators and experimentalist alike, to try new things, and be open to different possibilities. Join our hosts multi-instrumentalist Andy Demos & singer, song writer, guitarist Alex Sanders every Tuesday Night.

Get ready for a special night of incredible music as Grammy winners Marc Cohn and Shawn Colvin take the stage together at Pollak Theatre.

Colvin brings her signature blend of sharp wit, emotional depth, and lyrical elegance to songs that unfold with grace, humor, and vulnerability. Her music, filled with clever turns of phrase and slow-burning catharsis, invites listeners into deeply personal yet universal experiences.

Cohn, known for his timeless hit “Walking in Memphis,” combines the precision of a brilliant tunesmith with the soul of a true troubadour. With a voice rich in feeling and stories drawn from life and love, he captures moments both poignant and joyful, leaving a lasting emotional imprint.

Experience the songs you love— and the stories behind them— in one extraordinary night of music.
