Showcase undiscovered talents with upcoming Wild Joe*s Open Mics
Along with family gatherings, the holidays are a time to catch up with old friends and discuss the year ahead. Let Downtown Bozeman’s Wild Joe*s be your meeting Spot for a toasty beverage. And if you’re swinging in for an evening boost, the coffee shop is also a great place to check out acoustic sets by local and traveling artists. Here’s a look at what’s coming up.
The next Open Mic Night takes place Saturday, December 21st from 6–8pm. Enjoy an evening of music performed by local musicians. Bring your guitar, sitar, zither, poetry, comedy, or theremin and take a turn up at the mic. Show Bozeman what you’re made of! Individual set lengths depend on the number of musicians who want to play. Sign-ups start at 5:30pm – first come, first served. Be sure to bring your friends and support live music in Bozeman! A modest contribution to the kitty will be divided by participating musicians at the end of the night. The more people who come, the more money in the pot. An additional Open Mic Night is set for Friday, January 3rd from 6–8pm.
Looking ahead, local musician Sarah Price will visit Wild Joe*s on Friday, January 10th. Her show will be held from 6–8pm. With a voice that brings to mind the honesty of Joni Mitchell and the sweetness of Alison Krauss, Price’s performances feel like home. Raw, pure, and made for bigger stages than the ones she’s used to playing. Price spent the last three years performing around the United States and Europe as both a solo artist and part of a duo with folk/rocker Aaron Howard. Her abiding love of music is apparent in every moment she spends playing, both on and off the stage.
Wild Joe*s Coffee Spot is located at 18 W Main St. in the heart of historic Downtown Bozeman. Learn more about these and other upcoming events at www.wildjoescoffee.com. •
