The signup is done by way of signup sheet, and the line for the signup sheet can be ambiguous, so keep an eye for when it is put up, otherwise you may end up with an undesirable slot. Signup for the open-mic, though, can be somewhat of frenzy. The open-mic is hosted by Bruce Martin, who is affable and keeps the open-mic low key. It’s positioning on a Sunday also makes it ideal for people who can’t easily make it to an open-mic in the middle of the week.
Space is a bit cramped, but the room is also very quiet, meaning that performers get a good listen out of the audience. Unlike most other open-mics during the week, the open-mic at Pete’s starts earlier in the day (4:30 pm) though rumor has it that the sign up sheet has been going up as early as 3 pm. Pete’s Candy Store (Sundays – 4pm Signup / 5pm start / 709 Lorimer St., Brooklyn, NY)Ī long-running and well-attended open-mic in Williamsburg, Pete’s Candy Store has a good number of high-quality singer-songwriters who perform on a regular basis. This is to say that these open mics are, well, “open”. We present here a list of open mics that are currently in operation – as per our previous standards, the open-mics listed: (1) do not charge a cover, (2) do not have any genre or format restrictions (such as acoustic-only). But in the last year, a few open mics have opened back up in person (albeit with a brief hiatus due omicron). Some open mics managed to find new life as streaming open mics, which we have covered before.
No doubt, in the past two years, you have witnessed the complete decimation of the open mic system in New York City.
