The Cave (Marks Music Room) Music Club
Mission
Welcome to The Cave! Located in Marks Hall’s basement, the Marks Music Rooms are filled with instruments, recording equipment, and lounge areas that are waiting to be enjoyed.
CMC Music is a group dedicated to expanding and providing opportunities to Claremont Mckenna students relating to music. We strive to do so using our music rooms and equipment with the hope of supporting musical endeavors of all students, whether wanting to perform, create, or simply learn music.
We currently operate two music rooms--one for practicing and playing music: “The Jam Room”, and one for music creation and production: “The Recording Room”--located in the basement of Marks Hall. Both rooms are available to any and all students who wish to use them, once they complete a brief orientation process to ensure that they are acquainted with both the rules of the space and the equipment they wish to use.
In addition to just maintaining the two music spaces, we aim to run events like Open Mic Nights, and college-wide concerts, to allow for students to be able to perform to both other musicians, and the entire student body as a whole. Really, we hope to help spread the music-loving culture around the campus, and to keep as many students as musically active as possible.
ROOM ACCESS: To receive card access, fill out this Google form. It’s really important that you read the rules of the room carefully! Access requests will be processed in batches every Friday. Access is usually granted by EOD Monday at the latest (assuming no required staff are out of the office).
GROUP ME: We’ll send general announcements via email, however, GroupMe will be our quick & easy way of communicating! It will be great to have a platform where we can casually connect and help each other out :)
GOOGLE FORM: We want to try and support the multipurpose aspect of this room so as Sabrina Carpenter likes to say, please please please fill out this form telling us what exactly you want to see the space accomplish this year :)
LOST AND FOUND: If you left your instruments in the room over the summer, please come and grab them! There’s also some articles of clothing and random accessories that may be yours so be sure to check it all out!
If you have any other questions, or are interested in gaining access to the music rooms or musical equipment, please reach out.
