The Ale House String Band is comprised of Brian Dunn on mandolin, April Reed-Cox on cello and Oren Robinson on guitar. The three have played together since 2009.
The DRA Round Top Coffee House takes place the second Friday of every month. Each coffee house starts with open microphone performances.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. The open mic session runs from 6:45 p.m. to 8:15 p.m., with a 15-minute break before the feature act performs from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
The open mic is a series of eight-minute, two-song slots, and is designed for individual or small group performances. Performers should be able to walk up on stage and set up quickly.
Coffee and snacks are available. A plate or two of home-baked goods or a volunteer shift at the open mic earns free admission.
The DRA Round Top Coffee House is held at DRA’s Round Top Farm, on U.S. Route 1B (Main Street) in Damariscotta.
Admission costs $6 for adults or $3 for seniors. Children age 12 and younger get in free.
