Electronic Music Open Mic

Electronic Music Open Mic

THE FERRET electronic music OPEN MIC

Tuesday, 28th May

The Ferret | Preston

Doors 7PM

The Ferret’s first Electronic Music Open Mic (EMOM) kicks off in Preston this Tuesday 28th May.

This is an open stage night for electronic and experimental musicians, aimed at giving local artists a supportive space in which to play live and experiment. Open to all forms of electronic/experimental music including: ambient, chiptune, drone, drum & bass, dub, electronica, electropop, experimental hip-hop, field recordings, glitch, house, industrial, looping, noise, soundscape, synthwave, techno, trance & more!

Get out of your home studio or bedroom, and come out to a fun, supportive night with other enthusiastic tech heads, dabblers and music fans. You don’t need to be an established artist with a full repertoire. This is for anyone who wants to try their hand at playing live in a safe, motivating environment.

Computers, digital boxes, DJ controllers, drum machines, gadgets, groove boxes, keyboard synths, loop stations, modular synths, phone apps, samplers, sequencers… and everything in between. All welcome!

Come out and meet other music makers, producers and creative types from all walks of music making. There should be plenty of time to talk gear, production techniques and a whole range of inspiring ideas.

---

The event will run from roughly 7pm-11.00pm with wiggle room depending on interest.

Slots are up to 20 minutes. Some pre-booked slots have gone but we do have a couple left - so email info@theferret.live to grab one, or send us a private message on here or Instagram. Additional walk-in slots will be available on the night. First come first served.

Myths & Monsters

Take to The Ferret stage with full live-music PA & sound engineer. We will have a table for you to setup on, and another one to the side, for the next performer to prep their gear. In order for the event to run smoothly, we ask that you prepare a mono or stereo mix of your setup before handing your outputs over to us; we will not be able to mix your outputs for you in the given time. Vocal mics & mic stands available.

Sorry - no acoustic guitars – unless they are being used to generate soundscapes or some other style of music in keeping with the night (e.g. through pedals, FX units etc.)

Additionally, feel free to bring a USB stick containing visuals you'd like to be projected during your set.

Entrance is FREE for both performers and spectators, so gather your friends and fellow electronic music enthusiasts to join us for an incredible night of creativity and musical exploration!

Cold Bath Street Improv Session with Guests (afternoon session!)

CBS Improv - Live Session with Guests

AFTERNOON SESSION FROM 1PM-3PM!

CBS Improv - A new monthly session at the Ferret where guests improvise with members of the Cold Bath Street band using their GRID system to create some strange, weird and wonderful music.

If you like what you see, put your name down for a future session or just come down and soak up the vibes.

Admission: Free
Time: 1PM - 3PM
Further Info: www.coldbathstreet.com

———

More info:

Anyone is very welcome to come down and watch. If you are interested in playing, the session has a particular format. There will be two pieces - one before the break and one after the break. Each piece is done on a GRID that tells the players when they're going to play but not what to play. You’ll need a watch (or stop watch on phone etc).

It's a basic (fun!) system, it does mean we need to know exactly who's playing beforehand as everyone is allocated a number on the GRID. If you've not done it before, we asked that you watch/listen to the first piece and then we can give you a number and you can join in with the second if you want to. The style of the playing will vary massively depending who shows up - improv etc.

You need to provide your own equipment. We’re not using the house pa. Small amplifiers are welcome.

Recommend parking on Kirkham Street.

Any further info message Cold Bath Street on Facebook.

FUN BOMB! WIth Supergiant, THINGUMABOB AND THE THINGUMAJIGS, Design Rewind & Luke Out

🥳💣KH presents Fun Bomb!💣🥳

Friday, November 10th | 7pm - late

The Ferret, Preston

FREE ENTRY

A night of fun and funky music, celebrations and being your best self. Come with your dancing shoes and your brightest colours and sequins for an evening of good vibes and a gathering of excellent humans. Featuring…

🔥SUPERGIANT


Seriously tight funkateers hailing from Liverpool and Manchester, Supergiant are tearing up dancefloors and  fields with their own take on vintage funk and soul. After a run of festivals and supporting high profile artists such as Smoove and Turrell, Tom Maguire and the Brassholes and Craig Charles, these groove merchants are about to take it to the next level. Featuring guest vocals from Preston's own funk diva and birthday girl Kim Hollin.




🙌THINGUMABOB AND THE THINGUMAJIGS


These outrageously dressed festival favourites are making a special appearance for this special event! Think idiot circus music and kids singalong tunes played for drunken adults by imbeciles.




⏪DESIGN REWIND


Design Rewind is Billy Strahan Jr. & Jonathan Towers.  Billy Strahan is lead vocalist and drummer; Jonathan Towers plays bass and electric guitar and provides backing vocals. The duo writes all their own music and perform their own songs as well as cover songs. Design Rewind can be best described as a Modern Throwback. They are inspired by the great songwriters of the 1970’s & 80’s in pop and rock. Think Hall & Oates meets The 1975.




🎧With special guest DJ Luke Out to take us through til the wee hours with his eclectic dancefloor vibes.
