Acoustic Open Mic at Mentobe Cafe

NOTE: This is a BI-WEEKLY event, not weekly (please check the calendar  to verify the open mic is this week or the next).

One of the newest and hippest coffeehouses in town joins forces with one of the Detroit area's best open mic hosts: The Mentobe Cafe just opened in June 2011, but has quickly gained a reputation for its edible and drinkable goods, its atmosphere, and - most recently - its status as a venue for great live music.

The host, John Finan, is a singer/songwriter/musician​ and longtime open mic host (previously at Xhedos, AJ's, and the Plymouth Coffee Bean). John brings his enthusiastic and respectful support of local musicians to his new hometown coffeehouse.
