Talent BKG takes over The Exchange for an evening open mic on Friday 26 June, with the official listing running from 6pm to 11pm. It is one for local singers, spoken-word performers and anyone who prefers their community nights with a microphone in the room.
The Exchange links out to tickets from its event page. The venue is at Barking Riverside, so it is a short walk from the station and the riverside development rather than a trek into central London.
