Guitar · Ukulele · Vocals
Musicians
Sing a cover of a favorite song, play an instrumental, or try out your own composition for the first time.
Acoustic Night · Fridays from 8 p.m.
One guitar, one cup of tea, one small stage
Once we open, every Friday night Nhà An will set aside a corner for acoustic music, poetry and storytelling. Come and listen, or sign up early for a turn on the open mic.
Acoustic night
Unplugged music, every word heard
Acoustic music keeps the sound of the instrument and the voice just as they are: guitar, ukulele, bamboo flute and a microphone that's just loud enough. No big stage needed, only players who mean it and listeners who pay attention.
From 8 p.m. every Friday, Nhà An plans to host an acoustic night at our branches after they open. Part of the program is an open mic: sign up ahead of time to get a turn to sing, read a poem or tell a story.
- From 8 p.m. every Friday
- Moderate volume, so you can still chat quietly
- Open mic for those who sign up in advance
- Late-night vegetarian dishes from 10 p.m. for the long evenings
Open mic
Anyone can take the stage
No need to be a pro, just bring a piece you truly love and want to share.
Poetry
Poets
Read your own poem or one you love. If it's someone else's, please mention the author's name.
Storytelling
Storytellers
A trip, a memory from your school days, or a story from your work. Short and sincere is plenty.
Duets · Small groups
Small groups
A duet or a few people with acoustic instruments, as long as the volume stays moderate.

FAQ before you go on stage
When does the acoustic night start?
The night is planned to start after each branch opens. You can send in your sign-up right now, and Nhà An will contact you once the schedule is set.
I've never performed in front of a crowd. Can I still sign up?
Yes. The open mic is for amateurs, first-timers included. You could start with a single song or a short poem.
How long does each act get?
Nhà An plans short turns, around one or two songs or a few minutes of poetry or storytelling, so that many people get a turn. The exact length will be confirmed when we confirm your slot.
Can I perform other people's songs?
Yes. You can sing your own songs or covers of favorites; when reading someone else's poem or story, please mention the author's name.
Are performers paid?
The open mic is a friendly gathering; Nhà An plans to treat performers to a drink on their night. For nights with guest artists, we'll talk with them separately.
Can I sign up if I'm under 18?
Yes, with a parent's consent. Since the night starts at 8 p.m., it's best to have an adult come with you.
Sign up to perform
In your message, please tell Nhà An: your act, instrument, length, branch and the Friday you'd like to perform, plus a link to a recording if you have one. We'll get back to you once the schedule is set.
