Step Up to the Mic - The Lyrical Lounge

Do you want your words to be heard? Then step up to the mic at Kinser Surfside’s Lyrical Lounge on Saturday, April 26 at 8 p.m. Don’t let your heart overload or your soul suppress, pour out your perspectives for others to absorb. Let the words roll from your tongue as you share your truths, convictions, ambitions, observations, and dreams. Wax philosophically or spit verse—whatever way is your way to portray yourself, do it.

The Lyrical Lounge has been steadily attracting more poets, lyricists, and other verbal artists over the years. To supplement this growing creative voice, MCCS Entertainment has added smooth jazz accompaniment by Yemaya, a local jazz group, for your listening and poetic pleasure. So, while you speak your words, the musical background will help pave the road to your
poetic bliss. Let the ambiance of this evening captivate you while you do the same for others. Whether you are deeply philosophical or relatively simple in your words, the stage will be yours.

The Lyrical Lounge is open to all ranks and services island-wide, but only adults ages 18 and up will be admitted. Performers’ stage time will be limited to five minutes. If you’d like to strut your poetic stuff, sign up with MCCS Entertainment by emailing mccsentertainment@okinawa.usmc-mccs.org no later than Thursday, April 24.

For more information, call MCCS Entertainment at 645-5821.

Spoken word and music with live jazz accompaniment by Yemaya.
