There are several ways to get your songs heard. One is to go to an open mic, where you can have the opportunity to play to an audience that doesn’t have a vested interest in you. Open Mics are a great networking opportunity for songwriters, performers and musicians of all experiences and skill levels. As a songwriters you can road-test new material as it is being written (even works in progress if you are daring) and get great feedback from your peers. Also as other singer/songwriters are present you can easily find a songwriting partner.
You should contact the venue to confirm that the dates and time are still correct. Here is a list of available Open Mics in the San Diego Area.
