Our first "live-music only" open mic brought lots of new faces (or new combinations of faces! 😉) to the stage. Thanks so much for joining us.

Only one more Spotlight this year… then we're on break until April! Let's make November a big one.

We love MaKenah & are so glad she joined our community this year! She has a gorgeous voice & a crazy amount of range between genres. Enjoy her 𝗠𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮 𝗟𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘁 cover! 🎤

We only have 𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗧𝗟𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧𝗦 this year. Join us 6 pm tomorrow (𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲) at our usual location, Daily Addiction Coffee House. This will be our first live music only night (no karaoke tracks allowed), but a capella songs or poetry/comedy are welcome as always.

See you tomorrow!

We get messages at least once a week from local musicians, venues, or students who want to connect with fellow creatives. So this little addition to our website has been a long time coming!

How it works:

1️⃣ Submit a free listing on 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰.𝗰𝗼𝗺/𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 explaning who you are (a singer, a venue, etc.) & what you're looking for (collaborators, lessons, gear, whatever).

2️⃣ We'll 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 & post the listing within a day or two if it meets our criteria. Listings must be within 75 miles of Williston. We may highlight some of the posts on our social media to give you extra traction.

3️⃣ Listings stay up for 𝟲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 or until you ask us to remove them. Dated listings come down after the event or deadline has passed, if applicable.

We hope this helps you find your people & build a richer musical network here in the Bakken!

Timothy Martin, back at it again! 👏🏼 His beautiful 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲 𝗠𝗶𝗱𝗹𝗲𝗿 cover at September's Spotlight open mic was enough to bring us to tears. Somebody tell him to play more than one song next time. 😉

Our second-to-last Spotlight of the year will be 6 pm this Friday, 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲 at Daily Addiction Coffee House (north location). Reminder: this will be our first 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 night (no karaoke tracks), so practice up on your instrument or find a friend who can play with you!

October's featured artist is actually four artists in one… & if you've heard any of these guys, you know you don't want to miss this level of musicality! 🤯

The 𝗕𝘂𝗯𝗯𝗮𝗧𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 (Jordon Lotoa, Caleb Erickson, Junior Lotoa, Nereo Ocsio) are making their Spotlight open mic debut next Friday at 6. Join us at the usual location (Daily Addiction Coffee House on 22nd Street).

After the band plays a short set, the stage is yours to show off whatever music, comedy, or poetry you've been working on. Please note that no karaoke tracks are allowed this month—we're going live-music only! 😉

Watching singers like Anneka grow into this level of skill & confidence is what we LIVE for. The crowd was loving this 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝘆𝗲𝘇 cover. Can you believe that a couple of years ago she'd never sung in public?!

Just goes to show that you could do it too… 😉 Join us at the next Spotlight open mic on 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲 at Daily Addiction north. We'll be doing our first-ever 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 night (no karaoke tracks this time 🚫), so bring your guitar or a friend who can accompany you!

In person is better than online, period.

The next Spotlight open mic is 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲. RSVP on Facebook for details & updates: https://www.facebook.com/share/1HHJwmEFJw/

Our beautiful Karen (aka "Seth's mom" 😊) blessed us with performances at each of the last two open mics! She picks great songs for her voice & brought so much energy to this 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗮 𝗕𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 cover. It's wonderful to see Karen step into the spotlight like this after years of having her at our events!

P.S. Check out her son's music! We miss having Seth (Tuesday X) around: https://tuesdayx.bandcamp.com/

Only 2 more Spotlight open mics this year! 🎸 Join us 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲 at Daily Addiction north, where we'll be doing our first-ever 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 night.
