“The level of talent that walks in the door week after week is incredible, and we’re thrilled to offer them a professional stage to share their gifts”, says Incanto owner Tracy Parks

A sound tech is on hand to assist and a keyboard is available to play. Pre-recorded tracks are also available, or artists can bring their own.
