GOSPEL NITE w SILVERWOOD BOTTOM BOYS Second Sundays

...this is a FUN TIME!

HOSTED BY the SILVERWOOD BOTTOM BOYS

EVERY second SUNDAY at 7pm!

If one follows the two track north of Silverwood, Michigan, you cross the rolling countryside and approach the great cedar swamp. If you pause and listen closely you may here sounds of ole gospel music. If you walk carefully through the blackberry briars and low hanging cedar bows, you can make your way to the clearing where you can see the Silverwood Bottom Boys, under the tin covered lean-to, practicing for their next excursion into the modern world with their brand of ole time gospel music.
In the barn behind the lean-to, the ’46 Buick is gassed-up and ready to take them, and occasionally some of their friends, to a performance near you. They’ve been known to play ice-cream socials, Sunday school picnics, birthday parties, church services, anniversaries, tent revivals, hymn singin’s, wedding receptions, farmer’s markets,

and as of late they are regulars at Saginaw, Michigan’s finest music venue

The White Crow Conservatory of Music

every Second SUNDAY at 7PM
Minimum $5 at the DOOR

CROW OPEN MIC with Oz OSWALD THIRD FRIDAYS

ITS YOUR TURN !

THE OPEN MIC at the CROW is a recurring event
every third Friday from 7 to 9pm!
It is hosted by Oz Oswald and has been growing quite an audience as of Late!
We have musicians that participate who range from Professionals to complete beginners so everyone should feel at HOME!
Here's how it goes...
1 / Everyone.. even those performing pays $5 at the door.
2 / If you are coming to perform please come by 6:30 for sign up.
3 / We will give you as many swipes at the mic as time will allow!
4 / Please have your instrument tuned up before you take the stage.
5 / To be fair to all performers, keep your songs to 4 minutes or under. An open mic is not the place for the Album version.
6 / You can bring CDs for sale at back table if you have them and yes the money is all yours!
7 / VERY OFTEN I have booked in songwriters that have been frequent performers at the Open mic for a slot in a Songwriter Showcase!
So dont be afraid to show us your stuff!

If you are coming to enjoy the show and not perform..
There is alot less to remember.. come at 7 and ENJOY!!!!!!
