Sounds & Spirits

Sounds & Spirits Live Band Open Mic hosted by JoNate in Washington, D.c.

06/12/2026

🎤✨ From the stage to the screen! ✨🎤

What an incredible experience joining Good Morning Washington Good Morning Washington to talk about the journey, the music, and the community behind Sounds & Spirits and Secret Sounds!

A huge thank you to Roxanne Strouk who led such a fun and engaging conversation. We even learned she’s a singer herself, and we’re hoping to welcome her to one of our stages in the near future! 🎶

During the interview, we shared the origins of the movement and explained the difference between our two signature experiences:

🎙️ Sounds & Spirits — Our Sunday live band open mic experience featuring a full band, background vocalists, and an opportunity for artists to perform with professional musicians in front of an amazing audience.

🍸 Secret Sounds — Our Wednesday speakeasy-style experience where the vibe is intimate, soulful, and designed for artists and music lovers looking for something a little more hidden and exclusive.

We also talked about what guests and performers can expect, and how easy it is to sign up and become part of the experience.

I’m especially grateful to have been joined by Alexis Alexis Cook (Lex.C)💋 and Lyndsey Lyndsey Caldwell two incredible artists who have been part of this journey through several of our residencies. Their talent, dedication, and energy help make every show special.

If you missed the interview, be sure to check it out and see why Sounds & Spirits continues to be one of DC’s premier live music experiences.

🎶 Whether you’re a singer, poet, musician, or simply a lover of great live music, there’s a stage waiting for you.
