Hive Open Mic ( #openmic ) is a global community celebrating live music on Hive. Each week is a new event, inviting creative expression and genuine connection.
Hive Open Mic
Week 51: March 28 - April 3, 2021
Our community's open mic event attracts 50+ musicians and hundreds of listeners each week. We provide a haven for creative expression and genuine connection. All are welcome. Every contributor can be proud of the fact we are building a live music movement by celebrating songs with an international audience. Our event stands for global harmony.
For the 51st week of Hive Open Mic, we will explore the following theme: "Unity." This theme is selected by Spotlight Artist: @holisticmom, who joined our community just recently, bringing her awesome originality through the songs she carries. She also offers uplifting and inspiring words to other artists among us, being the ray of light she is. Our community is warmer because of her creative fire. Everyone is encouraged to share the collective current as we express and connect through: "Unity".
“Unity”
