A Night Out with Open Tab: Acoustic Magic at Northland Sports Pub

Saturday night hit, and the live music bug bit hard. I was on the prowl for tunes to feed my soul, and Northland Sports Pub and Grill delivered the goods with Open Tab. This dynamic duo—an acoustic power couple—was about to kick off their set when I rolled in, camera in tow, ready to capture the magic.

As they warmed up, Carmyn, the vocalist, spotted me snapping pics and playfully called out, “If I knew the camera was on me, I would’ve dressed up!” But hey, who needs glitz when you’ve got talent like hers? These two were fresh off a Thanksgiving show run, proving that their dedication to music outpaces their need for fashion statements. (Though, Carmyn, if you're reading this, I’m totally down to help you guys with a photoshoot!)

From their first song, it was clear these two were more than just musicians—they’re a vibe. Carmyn’s vocals were a knockout, and the chemistry between her and her partner made their set all the more fun to watch. Their playlist was a crowd-pleaser, blending classics and surprises to keep everyone grooving.

Of course, Northland Sports Pub nailed it as always. Quick service, cold drinks, and a great vibe—it’s the trifecta every Saturday night deserves.

And because I know you’re wondering—yes, I captured the whole thing: photos, videos, and the electric energy of an intimate acoustic show you need to experience. Trust me, this is one Open Tab you won’t mind picking up!
