Open Mic Monday returns tonight for final competition

The Historic Ritz Theatre’s Open Mic Monday returns tonight in Downtown Toccoa.

According to Ritz Theatre General Manager Tami Mayhugh, the fourth and final competition of Open Mic Monday is tonight at 7 p.m. in the Historic Ritz Theatre.

She says, so far, they’ve had competitions for Rock, Country, and original tunes from their contestants; but this month’s competition gives performers the option of any musical genre.

Contestants can sign up online by emailing Mayhugh at [email protected] or at the door the night of the show on a first-come, first-up basis, until 6:30 p.m.

Mayhugh says contestants can sing two songs or perform for 10 minutes.

Any pre-recorded music must be on a jump drive.

A three-judge panel will decide a winner who will not only take home the $50 prize, a paid gig at the 2022 Ida Cox Summer Music Series, and one hour of free recording time at Diamond Studios.

Mayhugh says this fun event is free for both the public and the participants.

She says come hear some great talent and cheer on your favorites.
