Celebrate THREE incredible years of monthly open mics at the Hall and wrap up this year with this special night! We’ll be featuring some of our favorite performers of 2025, and you’re invited. If you’d like to get up on stage there’s no signup sheet this time—if you’d like to join the lineup, DM Lincoln directly!
Since our debut on December 22, 2022, this historic space has been a haven for great sound, a warm crowd, and unforgettable performances; giving songwriters and performers a perfect stage to connect and share their music.
From guitars, mandolins, and ukes to basses and the Hall’s trusty piano, we’ve plugged in and mic’d up every kind of musician—pros and first-timers alike. It’s a chance to warm up your skills, debut a new song, or simply revel in this miraculous thing called music.
Host and featured performer Lincoln Crockett keeps the energy easygoing and positive, drawing on years of experience with the Sisters Folk Festival and its legendary Americana Song Academy. Lincoln’s a pro musician and energy healer whose fast picking, earthy rhythms, and lush melodies bring modern folk and progressive bluegrass to life. He also happens to live just down the road, making this event a true hometown celebration.
Our other fabulous featured performer is Sherry Waltson; a soulful local musician blending heartfelt singer-songwriter storytelling with a touch of blues. With deep roots in jazz from her career in the Portland music scene of the ’90s, Sherry brings rich musicality and authenticity to every performance. Now based in The Gorge, she continues to evolve her sound—captivating audiences with intimate, expressive performances throughout Hood River, White Salmon, Trout Lake, and beyond.
Whether you’re coming to listen, sing along, or be amazed, this evening promises all the magic we’ve come to love. Over the past year, we’ve heard everything from original tunes and singalongs to bluegrass, blues, and beyond—performed by solo artists, duos, and trios alike. The vibe? Friendly, supportive, and downright inspiring.
So mark your calendar and come celebrate music, community, and the joy of performing. See you there!
(ps we are going to enjoy a little rest at the start of the new year so there will be no open mic in January)
