What we’re about
✮ Next Jams: Weekly jam/prep/learning sessions; next big jam 4/28/24 Freewheel Brewing Co. Jam and upcoming Beginner & Intermediate jam (with weekly prep sessions leading up to it)
• A group to have fun, centered around music, and the people behind the music.
• A community based gathering for musicians of all types and levels, as well as music lovers who want to collaborate.
• A creative space for musicians to come together to learn, share, and let your musical desires flow.
• We will have elements for all levels of musicians (beginners, intermediate, advanced, casual players, etc.)
• A space to learn and work on songs, whether they are covers or originals.
• A space to explore and branch out into new musical directions; to explore new tastes.
• An environment to enhance proficiency in our individual playing, but as important is playing music with others.
• A place to display your passion through musical conversations
• A place to express yourself musically
**✮ Collaborate....**I see the meetup as a place to share all things musical and this platform enables diverse groups of people to collaborate in new and fun ways. This also can be a great place to share ideas, create new spaces and be… Creative. \
✮ Forums.... I’ve also started a new forum within the group to share ideas and collaborate more effectively. I ’ve turned on the messaging (Moderated for now) so members can reach out to each other and share ideas. \
**✮ Things I’ve observed as Jammers…**We jam but only sorta…. Jamming is fun but it’s somewhat chaotic if we don't have focus and structure. It's usually helpful if a musical genre and even song list is created and shared beforehand. It's also important to recognize that not all players are at the same level of ability or comfortable playing with other folks. \
*✮ So, I've got some ideas I’ve working on: *
\
❍ Joe's Beginner Jam - Easy going space where everybody gets to play \
❍ Open Mic Team - I want to assemble an open mic group that plays out \
❍ Blues for Beginners ❍ Acoustic Music \
❍ Vocals, Harmonies and more \
❍ Song writing gatherings \
\
Yours in Music,
