There will be another session of the successful Free Junior Open Mic, supported by the Herne Hill Forum, this coming Sunday.

Junior Open Mic is designed to make young performers feel as special as possible and nurture confidence. The Off the Cuff venue provides a professional sound engineer and a dedicated sound stage featuring an array of mics, fully mic’d up house drum kit, full size Roland keyboard and guitar amps. On-hand is a performers’ assistant, award giver, compere, stage assistant and supportive, friendly audience. And a free soft drink to every performer!

These events started in late 2017 and have become the largest Junior Open Mics in London. They are organised by local parents as community events. Typically, young performers are aged between 4-14 and we see up to 36 performers per session – from solo singers with backing track, poets, instrumentalists to rock bands.

So if you have children who’d like to try it, it’s this Sunday 27 January 2019 – 2:00pm to 4:30pm, at Off The Cuff, Arch 645, 301-303 Railton Road, Herne Hill, London SE24 0JN (just next to Herne Hill Station).
