Music Nova Scotia’s Open Mic has teamed up with the Carleton to become Absolut Thursdays. These evenings, held at the Carleton, will still feature an open-mic format but there will be added incentives to keep performers on their toes. These include theme nights pre-determined by the public, and tribute nights, where each performer will have to perform a song by a selected artist. These themes and tributes will be announced 48 hours before each open mic on Facebook and Twitter. The new setup will kick off tonight with a Joel Plaskett tribute — so if you want to start warming up your strings for an acoustic rendition of “Extraordinary,” now is the time.
