HCA is excited for the return of our First Friday Open Mic Night and Nico Rivers! Calling all singers (and people who love to listen to people sing)! Open Mic is a great way for singers to put themselves in front of a very supportive and fun crowd and to learn by watching other singers. Our host is the talented Jack Byrne. Socializing and sign-up start at 7:30 p.m. and the music begins at 8:00 p.m. All ages welcome! Acts range from singer-songwriters, instrumentalists, poets, beatboxers, and everything in between!
About Nico:
Sound has always fascinated me. The more I learn about how and why it works, the more it seems like magic. But the real magic isn't in the science, it's the way music evokes memories and feelings. That special moment when the melody hits it's peak and the singer's voice cracks just a little bit, the sound of scraping glass in the background or a dissonant harmony can send us into another world.
As a composer I do my best to harness that magic with every tool at my disposal, sometimes employing unexpected thematic elements to create sounds and melodies - a birdcage played with a violin bow, a howling police siren, or a revving chainsaw to name a few.
My goal is always to serve the emotion of the project and help your work pull viewers into the world of the story.
