About 1 year ago, I sang for my first time to an audience- at Influence Music Hall at Oddfellow Lodge. Now, I am playing my 3rd month at the art walk, my 6th week of an open mic, I was offered a light/sound engineer position for an entire play production and I feel like things just got started (I could add several more opportunities...). I have my own drive and passion- and Influence Music Hall has been nothing but a garden of fertile soil for every seed I have sewn.
THANK YOU!

IMH has hosted everyone from Grammy winning performers to street buskers and everyone between, free of judgement, free of charge, and with the same promise: 3 songs or 15 minutes, whichever comes first.
