- **Event Description**: The Undercurrent presents the Wellington Calling Open Mic!

The Undercurrent is hosting the Wellington Calling Open Mic and we're looking for diverse acts to contribute! Each performer gets the chance to have a six-minute set with a microphone, guitar and piano provided. This is an originals only event. We want to encourage new creative voices to be heard. “We want to provide a positive and encouraging environment for established and fledgling acts to shine in. It's a pretty inspiring place to perform,” says host Steven Hood.

Each performer will need to sign up in person before 7:30pm and registrations of interest need to be emailed to openwandw@gmail.com before July 2.

The feature act is Karim Efremov (aka Keey Fremm). His music explores the space between them—drawing inspiration from jazz improvisation, cinematic storytelling, heavy rock, classical traditions, and the unexpected. His work is driven by curiosity, theatricality, and a desire to challenge conventional musical expectations.

Bizarre-Esque is the live performance project through which these ideas come to life. More than a band, it is an evolving musical experience that embraces contrast, experimentation, and storytelling, inviting audiences into a world where familiar sounds are continually reimagined. For this performance, Karim will present a selection of his original compositions, joined by Sylvester Green (trumpet), whose musicianship brings an exciting collaborative dimension to the music.
