Hey everyone 🙂 After a great first event, I’m hosting a second relaxed afternoon music jam in Melbourne for people who enjoy creativity, connection, self-expression, and meeting new people. This will be a safe and welcoming space to explore expression through music, whether you’re experienced or just starting out. Vocalists, instrumentalists, loop artists, songwriters, and people of all skill levels are welcome. An amp, acoustic guitar, keyboard, and RC300 Loop Station will be provided, but feel free to bring your own instruments as well. If you’ve been working on original songs and would like to share them and get supportive feedback, that’s also very welcome 🙂 Feel free to bring food, drinks, instruments, snacks, or anything else you’d like to share with the group. Please RSVP on the Meetup platform and also message me before the event date to confirm your attendance, as there will only be space for 3 females and 3 males to help keep the group balanced. We’ll meet near Coulson Gardens Playground 35–55 Chifley Dr, Maribyrnong VIC 3032 If you have any questions or you can’t find us on the day, please text me (Deborah), the event organiser, on 0422410522 🙂
