## <center>Open Mic Winners From Week 34</center>  ##

**Thanks to everyone who entered and supported Open Mic Week 34**. Community support for Open Mic has been tremendous and is one of many projects bringing the music community together on Steemit. 

This week had some of the best entries yet and broke a record on Steemit Open Mic for the most entries thanks to all of you helping promote and support this project.

Big thanks to my friends staying at the Hostel Rio for helping me pick the winners this week. There were so many talented performers it was hard to pick and a fresh set of ears really helped.

A big shout out to @pfunk for sponsoring Steemit Open Mic and getting the word ut with his post this week titled, [Hey Did You Know There S A Weekly Steem Open Mic Contest](https://steemit.com/openmic/@pfunk/hey-did-you-know-there-s-a-weekly-steem-open-mic-contest) --- by @pfunk<br/>

I just want to remind everyone that votes are only part of the selection process. Entertainment value and performance is factored in too.

The coolest thing about Open Mic is it brings the Steemit community together and that is the whole point of this project. 

Thanks to @pfunk for helping to sponsor Open Mic and he's even generously been giving Steem bonuses to participants posting original music.

If you make music be sure to check out @soundlegion's post [Music Artists On Steemit Submit For Soundlegion Steemit Music Artists Compilation V 1](https://steemit.com/music/@soundlegion/music-artists-on-steemit-submit-for-soundlegion-steemit-music-artists-compilation-v-1) --- by @soundlegion<br/>

Open Mic is not about winning or losing, it's about building a connection on Steemit through music. Watching the collaboration happen online between musicians who played and met on Steemian 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 Open Mic than it is to play music on the street.**
