4th Thursday Blues Jam

Plan now to attend the Black Rose Society Blues Jam on 4th Thursdays at the All Souls Unitarian Church led by Ray DeMers, longtime blues musician and music instructor in the Pike Peak region. Come on out and play along to 20th century blues songs spanning a wide spectrum of artists from Irving Berlin to Robert Johnson to Muddy Waters to Jimi Hendrix.

Note that the songbook has been updated and we are now on version 2.0c as of April 29th. Please visit the Black Rose website to download the latest version here: songbooks available to download

Note well: Mark K put together a Spotify playlist (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7CBYdhPQN1MjARPY841MTb?si=1bbee4490bae46a9) for those wanting to learn and practice the songs before the actual jam! Thanks, Mark!

If your finances are tight, we appreciate your monetary donations at the jams you attend. On the other hand, if you want to provide steady and continuous support of all our community-focused events, consider our sustaining membership option (see https://www.blackroseacoustic.org/membership) And thank you, however you choose to support the Black Rose!
