Music Jam! 🎹🎷🎺🎸🎻🪘🪗🎤

Want to play music with others in an informal, welcoming, inclusive environment? Our music jams aim to cater to all people who play or are learning a musical instrument, in a super relaxed setting where the pressure is turned down to 0 (rather than up to 11!).

Recently started learning? Need encouragement to dust off that instrument tucked away under the bed for years? Maybe you're a more experienced musician wanting to practice and play in a group setting? Regardless of your prior experience and musical interests, all are welcome, as are all instruments...!

Typical format:
There are either one or two separate rooms that people can choose/move between, depending on numbers. One has a full drum kit, piano and the option of plugging into an amplifier for guitarists, and is suited to a range of musical genres. The other room is acoustic only and especially good for pop, folk, blues, jazz. People (apart from drummers..!) typically bring their own instrument, but there are a few additional instruments to hand for those who are not able to, including tambourines, hand drums, electric/acoustic guitar, and a violin.

Prior to each event, a youtube backing track or two are shared on the whatsapp group/meetup event chat in advance. These are in line with a loose musical genre theme for each room, chosen by participants at the previous event.

There is no need to prepare in any way, but these are shared so that anyone can give the tracks a listen and have a go jamming along on their own in advance if they want get more comfortable with them first.

These tracks are our shared starting points, to get us playing along together, and we go from there in what ever direction people want to on the evening.

People who need a break from playing or want to chat are welcome to chill in the kitchen with drinks and snacks (and both are always welcome as contributions!).

Location:
Exact location will be shared with attendees via whatsapp or meetup event chat for attendees, opposite Kopi and Chai.

We also have a WhatsApp group! If you are interested in taking part, but are unable to make the above event, please get in touch for to join!

Same for any other questions, just give us a shout. 👌🙂
