Silent Open Mic is every 2nd Wednesday of the month 🎤 Featuring a networking corner created in partnership with @musicmeetup_jax - providing more resources for artists to connect! 🤝 Plus our stage & LED screens with custom graphics! 📺📺
This month our featured performer to kick off the night and set the bar is Merci ❗️🎤🎶
- Merci is an artist born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida, whose work bridges the worlds of poetry, rap, and visual storytelling. With a foundation in spoken word, his delivery carries a balance of intricate lyricism, dynamic flow, and intentional messaging. As the founder of Poetically Mic’d, Merci is dedicated to elevating poetry and spoken word in Northeast Florida, creating spaces for artists to share their voices. His artistry extends beyond the stage, weaving cinematic visuals and creative direction into his work to craft immersive experiences that leave a lasting impact.
