Join us for this dynamic Americana/Bluegrass jam at the Treehouse Cafe. This twice-monthly jam at the Treehouse Cafe on Saturday mornings is more advanced than other Black Rose bluegrass jams, and also spans across various Americana formats. This is a great jam to come listen to if you want to hear how a more advanced jam works and sounds! (Plus we love supporting Sara, owner of the Treehouse Cafe!)

**ABAJS Rules**
**Support Others**
This is a friendly inviting jam, where all players who exercise good rhythm and technique are allowed to join. All jammers will be supportive and kind to each other.
**Play From Memory**
Festival style jamming requires a musician to call a song and teach it to the other jammers. Using a chord chart gets in the way of facilitating this memorization process.
**Take A Solo**
All jammers are required to solo at least once during the jam. Nobody is asking you to sound amazing, but it is important to grow as a musician. Harmony is also encouraged, join in on the chorus!
**No Jam Busters**
Songs called will be appropriately structured to be able to be taught to the other jammers in a timely fashion. Excessively complex songs that require 5+ minutes of instruction will be played at other jams.
**Genre Bending Is Allowed**
The premise of this jam is to allow musicians of separate genres to enjoy songs they might not normally play. This jam is focused on but not limited to: Bluegrass, Americana, Folk, Western Swing, Country, Rock, and other acoustic interpretations of music, as long as it is appropriate to the jam.
**Bring A Dulcimer**
Musicians are allowed to bring any style of acoustic instrument as long as it is not used disruptively and played with respect to the song.
**Have Fun!**
Make friends and notify your nearest Society Member of ways we can improve this jam.
