34 Church Street, FalmouthAbout the night
EOMN (Electronic Open Mic Night) at The Cornish Bank is Falmouth's open mic for electronic musicians — no guitars allowed. Instead you bring your digital or analogue gear or laptop and treat the room to your bleeps, bloops and blips, with backline and a sound tech provided so producers can step out of the home studio and into the spotlight. It's free to come and listen; performers email eomnfalmouth@aol.com in advance to book a slot, or just turn up to enjoy the music in this characterful former-bank music venue.
