Songwriter Open Mic at Village Wine

10/20/2025

Friends, this will be a ton of fun, and some great music! JJ and I (LoveSeat) will open the show with a few songs, some new stuff you haven’t heard before. Come out and enjoy!

Join us for Americana duo Beth & Brandon on Oct 22, live in the Register Room!

Beth and Brandon combine their classical, folk, jazz and choral music training to create a modern perspective on a vintage sound. With a focus on vocal melody and harmony, their songs sound as if they had been unearthed with the patina of decades in the songbook of Americana. An array of instruments (guitar, banjo and bass) pass between the hands of the duo to bring original and standard tunes to life.

Both members of other Kansas City bands (Konza Swamp, Little Miss Dynamite, CatGut, Whiskey Mash) the duo was forged in the rich musical melting pot of the Rural Grit Happy Hour in KC’s Crossroads Arts District. Together they seek the time and means to provide a genuine and meaningful musical experience to their audiences.

I need some help. Fun help. But it’s complicated…
ECVB is doing a promo photo shoot on Wednesday on the roof at VW. BUT, it’s full band open mic on Wednesday and that really needs to be down in the RR. So I’m setting up for 7:30-8:00 on the roof, then we’ll move down to the Register Room for the Full Band Open Mic/Songwriter Open Mic at Village Wine. So here’s where I need your help: we need bodies on the roof from 7:30-8:00. So if you can get a few people together and join us for a beautiful sunset and a brief concert, that would be awesome.

I routinely check out musical artists new to me. My standard approach is to search for the artist and then play their most popular songs. That’s how I found this remarkable song, How Bad I Want to Live by Maya de Vitry. Link in comments. Wow.
