Keena Graham hosts the Americana Open Mic Spotlight — Red Light Café's Wednesday showcase for the best Bluegrass, Roots Rock, Country & Western, Folk, Blues, Jazz, and all other things Americana. We're looking for Atlanta's Best Americana — we're looking for YOU.
Online sign ups begin at noon on the Monday before each show.
$5 Performers / $3 General Admission
Doors @ 7 PM
Performances begin at 8pm sharp with 10 participants getting a 15 minute slot. At 10:30, the top 3 finalists (determined by crowd response, our gracious host Keena, and the RLC Staff) will showdown by performing one more song each to determine the night's winner! The winner receives a $25 RLC gift certificate, a recording of their performance featured on RedLightCafe.com, and a spot in our Americana Showcase (stay tuned for more details on that).
Online sign ups end at 6pm day-of-show. Good luck, and make us proud!
