Open Mic Night at the Northern Market
The newest Open Mic Night in Leeds is here, on the last Thursday of every month in the Speakeasy. This is a casual and free way to enjoy some of Leeds’ most underground artists, in an intimate setting.
For performers, this is a beginner-friendly environment for anyone who’s been thinking about braving the stage. Whether you love playing covers or want to test out new material, all are welcome. We have created a space where creatives can showcase their work. Each performer will receive a recording of their set and a free drink. It will be professionally recorded and mixed by our host and producer!
If you would like to sign up to perform, please send us a message on Instagram at @northernmarketleeds or email us at northernmarket@northernmonk.com with the subject Open Mic Night signup.
