Open Jazz Jams
September 3, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Open Jazz Jams at Flemington DIY will be held from 1-5 PM the first Sunday of every month starting March 5th, 2023. The sessions will provide an opportunity for musicians to play with an experienced band. From 1-2 PM the hosting musicians for the week will play. Other musicians will be invited to sit in and play between 2-5 PM (typically a minimum of 2 songs each, circumstances permitting). With the exception of drum kit and piano, all musicians should bring their own equipment (instruments, amps, drum sticks, microphones, etc.). The sessions will focus primarily on jazz standards and other jazz tunes contained in Hal Leonard Real Books volumes 1 through 3. Newcomers will be coached through the process.
A $3 to $5 donation to Flemington DIY will be required from each musician that plays at the session. Visitors that just want to listen to the music are also welcome to attend for all or any part of the 1-5 PM sessions free of charge.
For questions about the sessions, or to be added to the monthly text notification list for last minute cancellations or reschedules, please email njjazzjam@gmail.com
