7112 Willow Ave., Takoma Park, MD 20912 | signup at 6pm, music at 7pm
Sponsored in conjunction with Institute of Musical Traditions and School of Musical Traditions at SMT’s new lesson space in Takoma Park, we’ve got a small room for performances and we’re not afraid to use it. This is NOT a restaurant so bring your own food or drink if you want to eat or drink! (no alcohol please, and of course please clean up after yourself). House keyboard in the house.
TONIGHT we’re joined by special guest star Amoreena Athanas!
Amoreena is a songwriter and singer who has performed her original music in the greater Washington, DC, and New York City areas. Amoreena draws on history, mystery, and current events in her songwriting. A few examples of Amoreena’s songwriting themes include Robert Frost’s dedication to poetry from the perceived perspective of his wife, observations about the marketing of the failed American dream, and a message from the spirits of Chelsea Hotel.

We’re not big enough for amps or drumkits, so don’t bring’em. 2 songs, 10 minutes, 1 pun – whichever’s shorter. Webcasting Live on Facebook.com/robsopenmics, YouTube.com/robsopenmics and Twitch.tv/ilyaimy.
*Wuzza Takoma Spark you might ask? Dave Eisner has chosen to commemorate an arts collective we used to have here in Takoma Park by naming this NEW performance space at School of Musical Traditions after our sadly-departed Rob Nicholson’s strange and wonderful gatherings. Takoma Spark – to spark creativity and inspiration into a warm and inviting, roaring (but ne’r searing) open flame!
