Open mic spots fill us fast. See info. below about how to sign up. This is an all-women event and all women are welcome: an upbeat community gathering to connect with old friends, meet new ones, and enjoy fantastic entertainment. Our feature this month is CARRIE GERENDSAY who is an outstanding, high energy folk singer with a superb voice, and a lightning-fast flat picking hand. Powerful and passionate, her songs inspire and her charismatic presence electrifies the room. She puts intense emotional interpretation into her songs which span folk, blues and country music; she is a kick-ass guitar picker with a strong voice for the blues and western music, and a sweet sound for ballads. Her vocal power is only equaled by the rate at which her fingers fly over her guitar strings. Her witty and edgy banter between songs adds punch to her solid performance. Carrie is also lead singer and bass player with the Average Dyke Band. AND...the heart and soul of Third Thursday: YOU, either as performer or audience member. Drop in for some laughs, songs, poems, prose, instruments, spoken word, and any other talents you have. Each performer has 5 minutes to do their thing. It is an evening rich with entertainment.
