Jazz Jam in Redmond at SoulFood Coffeehouse - 2nd Thursday edition

Come and connect around appreciation of the great American art form! The SoulFood Coffeehouse jazz jam is a casual, all-ages gathering, open to the public. Join in on stage or hang out and listen along.

Mark Jelsing will play drums and stand in for John as the host for the evening, with Gregg Robinson (keys), Owen Yen (guitar) and Alex Ispa-Cowan (bass).

Rules of the road for the Soul Food Jazz Jam:
It's a low key, open format session. There's no sign-up list, just be sure to personally introduce yourself to the host or raise a hand from the audience. We typically start with a short opening set then invite performers to take turns onstage, including rhythm section players. The material tends to be Real Book and American songbook standards. There's a mic available for singers - please bring charts for particular songs and keys.

Thanks to SoulFood CoffeeHouse, Makia and staff for offering the comfy, intimate venue along with fine coffee, refreshments and tasty treats. Please support SoulFood's continuing mission to offer a place for local music in the Redmond community by giving a $5 free will donation at the counter.

6pm to 8pm (closing).
