Join us for a Hootenanny jam at the Treehouse Cafe! This twice-monthly jam is the Black Rose's next evolution of the jams we've had at the Treehouse Cafe location on Saturday mornings (2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month) at 10:00 A.M. It replaces the ABAJS jam, which had inconsistent attendance.

What is a hootenanny? A hootenanny in the 60s was a folk music jam, with some songs aimed at promoting civil rights and ending the war. Today, our hootenanny continues the folk music tradition, with a nod to promoting people's rights and freedoms. A good hootenanny song might give understanding to an issue or a situation or a people. It might promote a cause or it might give hope to the oppressed. There is lots of singing, and an emphasis on fun.

If that resonates, come join us!
