Mountain music (also known as bluegrass, old-time, and roots music) is ‘people’ music. We are a community of folks learning to sing and play this music together.

There are two ways to join in on the fun.
Option A: Watch our online workshop, get a book, and sign up
Option B: Attend a "Get Started" Class

The 'Get Started' Classes and JamShops are divided into graduated levels to suit everyone, from the absolute beginner to the more advanced.

What members are saying

 It is the best place to overcome the natural tendancy to be nervous about playing music with others. 

 This is a great way to be with others who have the same enthusiasm as you do to get better playing and singing Mountain Music!!!! Everyone at the jam has something good to offer the group.
