Special thanks to @verbal-d, @passion-ground, @meno, @soundlegion, @verbal-d, and @krystle for help judging the contest this week. Great job.

Steemit Open Mic is not about winning or losing, it's about building a connections on Steemit through music. Watching the collaborations happen online between musicians who played and met on Steemit Open Mic is very rewarding and many of the people who play and post earn some nice rewards for playing a song.

For many, it's easier to get some Steem in your tip jar by playing for Steemit Open Mic than it is to play music on the street.

Steemit Openmic Week 111 Quiet Glory Original --- by @chaifm


What a pleasant surprise! We haven’t heard from @chaifm for a very long time – then out of nowhere, like magic, she suddenly appears and graces us with her splendid musical work in progress, “Quiet Glory.” Check the post for details on her upcoming (Open-Mic inspired) EP, “Elderflower Sea!” - @passion-ground


What a beautiful little song. I'm so happy to see @chaifm back, it's been a while since I've heard her sweet voice. I'm super happy to know she has not stopped working on her music and is currently working on releasing an EP, if this song is on there, I'm sure it will be fantastic. - @meno


"I had chills through and through with this performance. I am so glad to see @chaifm this week and she is true to form, reaching down deep in your and pulling things out. ooohhh my just beautiful. I am beyond a fan, I was meditated by this incredible sound" - @soundlegion


So glad your glorious music isn't quiet at all. Couldn't fathom an Open Mic community without all of the great originals you blessed us with, and this one is poetically deep and profoundly performed with a reflective and sombre cry. Both you and @Melavie have that talent to produce such melancholic and heartfelt music. Great guitar work to build up the momentum and suspense as well. Thank you for sharing this gem, looking forward to more in the future. - @verbal-d


You really have a captivating voice and feel when you perform, you feel the music and words and present them to a listener in a brilliant way - I loved this song and this entry, I hope to see more from you soon. - @krystle


2nd Place

You won 40 Steem


Steemit Open Mic Week 111 Cover Of Nessi Gomes Diamonds And Demons --- by @ingridkorneelia


It only took five seconds for me to feel the goosebumps all over my neck. The vocals as always are superb, and the somber tones just get right under your skin. Absolutely stunning.... I just don't know what else to say. - @meno


" @ingridkorneelia has such a great voice, she pulls in my soul when she lets out, absolutely brilliant emotion" - @soundlegion


Quite the soothingly chilling song, with pensive poetic lyrics and your beautiful haunting performance, singing and guitar wise. This was a wonderful cover song to introduce to us this week and you brought this to life in all its shadowed vitality. Thanks for sharing this gem, looking forward to more of your artistic interpretations. - @verbal-d


I really hope to keep seeing and hearing that incredible voice, what an absolutely brilliant performance! - @krystle



3rd Place

You won 26 Steem

Steemit Openmic Week 111: “There Must Be A Way” --- by @shookriya


Sometimes the best company we find in times of loneliness and lost direction are the worst influences, but for the time being, those moments of companionship are still cherished because they provided something that helped the ever impending void of nothingness that vacuums away the meaning of life and purpose from many souls trying to find their way in this cold world. I really enjoyed your lamenting melodies, deep lyrics and raw emotions in this original, great guitar chord transitions as well. Thank you for sharing this farewell gem with us, I am sure it was quite the great experience in Venezuela with @joseacabrerav and @Smollrecord. Have a safe journey home. Looking forward to more entries from you brother. - @verbal-d


I’m certain the jazz and funk-filled spirit of @miguelblanco is very much with me in placing this classic @shookriya rendition at the top of this week’s list._ - passion-ground


" I cant ever get tired of hearing @shookriya ohhh baby!! he has such a great voice soooo smooth and sexy, and i love the emotive jazzy flair, delicate and timely perfect..mmmmm" - @soundlegion


4th Place

You won 26 Steem

Steemit Openmic Week 111 Nowhere Man The Beatles Cover By Themusiclover --- by @themusiclover


The multi-instrument performances and harmonies here are spectacular! I love the way @themusiclover captured much of the detailed nuance of this incredible Beatles classic! - @passion-ground


Oh man, I'm a super beatles fan so of course I clicked this with high hopes and I was not disappointed. Brilliantly done, the vocals, the harmonies, the shaker the claps... I really enjoyed the simple yet warm approach to this Beatles classic. - @meno


"beautiful work, @themusiclover is a treat really unique quality and charm to his voice. Soothing or comforting style vocals that put you in a good mood, i love hearing him sing, the energy put out is positive and glowing. Great cover song, worked gloriously" - @verbal-d


5th Place

You won 26 Steem

Steemit openmic week - 111- Wilins - Bad Company // Bad Company (Originalsong) by @wilins Méndez --- by @wilins


*Our brother Wilins has embarked upon a new chapter in life. With it, I hope the company he encounters along the way is as rich, pleasurable, intense, and gratifying as the song he shares with us here, his original composition, “Bad Company!” * - @passion-ground


" It must be stated I am becoming bias to this @wilins he warms me right up with his original songs and voice. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the spirit you bring to this openmic. Big love for your work" - @soundlegion
