On the third Saturday of each month, there is a combined Coffee House & Open Mic from 6–9 pm. Coffee and snacks are available. Attendees are also welcome to BYOB and dinner/snacks. A featured performance takes place for about 60 minutes, with open mic slots available prior.
This month, we are pleased to feature the lively trio, Union Sound. Dublin's own Ruth Blais Thompson and Margot Sprague, both lifelong singers, began performing together when they met through their work on the board at the Dublin Community Center. They discovered their voices’ complementary ranges and timbres harmonized naturally. Talented career big-band musician Greg Butko brings his seasoned, agile saxophone to the trio. Together, the three cover a wide range of genres with a spirit and sound that is upbeat and all their own. Sets include early country, British Invasion, Burt Bacharach, Van Morrison, Neil Young, John Prine and even lively Latin. Their warmth, harmony and musicianship show a genuine joy of performing.
Email info@dublincommunitycenter.org to reserve a spot on the open mic sign-up, or just show up and find an available spot on the list. A suggested donation starting at $5 (or more) can be given at the door to help offset costs, and a hat will be passed during the performance for contributions for the featured performer(s).
