https://www.queencityballadeers.org/schedule
The Queen City Balladeers organization runs the Leo Coffeehouse, a Sunday night open jam and concert, with workshops on varied subjects and open-mic nights. It's a caffeinated listening room, steeped in Americana music and welcoming all genres.
The open jam starts at 5:15, followed by concerts starting at 6:40, every Sunday evening, September through May, held at the Zion United Church of Christ in Norwood, 2301 Indian Mound Avenue, Norwood, OH 45212. Stop by with your instrument, your voice, or just your ears.
Leo Coffeehouse Schedule:
All Leo Coffeehouse evenings begin with the following activities from 5:15PM.
• Every Sunday of the month: Open Jam in the main hall
• First Sundays of the month: Rise Up Singalong at 3 PM, special workshops
• Second Sundays: Song Writers Collaborative upstairs
• Third Sundays: Guitar Roundtable upstairs
• Fourth Sundays: Old-Time Music Jam upstairs
Every Sunday, scheduled performers take the Leo stage from 6:40PM to 9:00PM.
Note: Free Outdoor Summer Acoustic Jams
Feel free to join some of our members at their weekly outdoor acoustic jam on Sunday evenings in Sharon Woods. These summer jams are not a Queen City Balladeers event, but we support acoustic music and so want the public to know about these:
Summer Outdoor Acoustic Jams at Sharon Woods (5:30 – dusk). Jam outdoors at Sharon Woods on Sunday evenings from the first Sunday of June through the first Sunday of September, and are free and open to the public. Look for musicians at a picnic table (they do not reserve an area) near the Sharon Centre – enter from Route 42.
