SHOWCASE

In addition to our Friday concerts , and Open Mic events, the Black Rose is now hosting a Showcase Event for members wanting to play more songs than they can at our popular Open Mic events, but are not yet ready to perform as an opening act at our Friday concerts in front of 100 people or more, or don’t want to wait 9 months to get a slot on stage - our opening acts are very popular! Not a member? Become one here.

As with our Open Mic events, Showcases are held in the relaxed atmosphere of area brew pubs and restaurants where in addition to hearing the music, you will be able to purchase food and drink, thus helping to support local businesses as well.

Showcase Details:

  • You need to sign-up in advance by sending an email to showcase@blackroseacoustic.net. NO SAME-DAY SIGN-UPS.

  • You must be a Black Rose member to sign-up and play. Become a member here.

  • The format for the evening is 4, 35-40 minute sets. Each performer should have 8-10 songs ready to perform, but the time is limited to 40 minutes so that we can give all participants sufficient time on our stage.

  • We will provide a PA system system with 3 vocal mics, 1 instrument mic, and either 2 2-channel or 4 single-channel instrument inputs.

  • The Buffalo Lodge would like us to schedule the acts 5 weeks in advance for promotion reasons, so sign up soon!

  • Acts will not be paid, but will likely share money collected via a tip jar (the details of this are still being worked out).

  • There is no admission charge, so please bring your friends and family to hear you play, and above all, have fun!

This is a brand-new event, so sign up now before the word spreads and the slots start to fill up!
