After months of searching for a proper venue. Odde’s (Oh-dees) in Westminster has agreed to host our Songwriters Showcase! The venue has a stage, lights, and a PA, and is a restaurant so you can bring your young’uns to watch, too. And the food is super! Odde’s is located at 9775 North Wadsworth, Westminster, CO. It is in an “L” shaped shopping center so there is plenty of free parking as well! (south of the McDonald’s). The show will start at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 22nd and will end at 8:00 p.m. so those that need to leave early will have no problem!
This event is set to co-incide with the summer start of our 2023 Songwriting Contest on May 1st!
