Why jam?
Jamming encourages creativity and improves musicianship. You’ll sharpen your timing, improve dynamics, and learn to communicate with quick cues. You’ll might also pick up new repertoire, fresh approaches to tone and feel, and the subtle art of leaving space. Most importantly, you’ll meet other musicians who might become your future bandmates or even song-writing partners. At the very least, you’ll have a chat with other open minded musicians.
Bring
