Cherry's Bar is a town-centre bar and event venue at 19 Savile Street, Hull (HU1 3EF). It runs a relaxed weekly open mic called 'Cherrie's Acoustic' every Sunday afternoon from 4pm to 7pm — free to perform and free to watch, with all welcome to just turn up and put their name down. It's an afternoon session, so the vibe is easygoing — a mix of working musicians, friends and locals. A PA and at least one vocal mic are provided; bring your own instrument, amp and pedals. Solo songwriters, duos and acoustic acts work best given the set-up; full bands should ask the host first. The bar also hosts other live music and events through the week.
