Being a young performer can be tough in Anchorage. If you’re not old enough to drink, your options of venues are slim. That’s why the Anchorage Music Co-op teamed up with local youth to establish Under 21 Open Mic.
This week on State of Art, we’re hearing from musician and organizer Jamie Whiteman. We learn about the open mics, what to expect and how to get involved.
