Coffee House / Open Mike at Unitarian Universalist Church of Reston

Every second Friday of the month, the Unitarian Universalist Church of Reston(UUCR), in association with Songwriters Association of Washington (SAW) hosts an evening open mike / coffeehouse. From 8 to 9 PM musicians and poets will have their chance to perform in a relaxed, supportive and respectful environment. Please contact the poster / host (Doug Sedgwick) to book your slot in advance. Available slots (if any remain by that time) the evening of the coffeehouse will be doled out on a first come, first serve basis. At 9 PM, the evening's "featured performer" will play a 45 - 60 minute set. From 10 PM to close (which varies depending on attendance) either more open mike slots will be doled out - or group "jamming" will take place. The $5 cover charge entitles you to coffee, soda and assorted snacks while you listen.

The January featured performer is singer / songwriter Jason Frye. Details are attached.
