Madelyn’s in Mesilla is the place to be this week starting Thursday night.
We’ll kick things off with Open Mic from 6 to 9 p.m., and we would love to see some new faces. If you haven’t played at our Open Mic before, now is your time to show your talent.
We also have a full lineup of performers all weekend, including next Tuesday with traveling musician Hunter Wainscott. Check out our flyers for more information and make your plans now.
Remember, we don’t just offer live music—we also serve a full menu of breakfast, lunch, dinner, pastries, and a complete bar with beer, wine, and cocktails. We truly have it all at Madelyn’s.
