If you love the Blues, then you've found a home. Whether it's acoustic Blues in the Delta or Piedmont style or electric blues Chicago style, this jam is for you! Come meet-up, and jam with your guitar, bass, drums, mandolin, fiddle, harmonica, sax, ukelele, and/or voice. All levels of playing ability are welcomed. A basic understanding of the 8 bar or 12 bar blues is all that's required.

Want to attend?

It's an electric blues jam this month! If you like electric blues, come on in!

At the request of the venue's owner I will be moderating the volume levels (to be considerate of other customers). Combo amps please (no stacks )

If there are more than 8 guitarists we will rotate groups so everyone has a chance to play several times. A basic PA is available for use. The $1.00 fee is towards the website costs. Read more

What members are saying

 Very nice, friendly group. I felt that every level of musicanship was accepted and the more experienced players were willing to share tips and lead the songs. 

 Excellent.
