WE LOVE TO MEET NEW PICKERS\, AND WE LOVE PUTTING ON A GOOD SHOW FOR LISTENERS!THERE ARE NO PRE-SHOW RESERVATIONS FOR THE JAMS! SUGGESTED DONATION AT THE DOOR. $5.00 per person Our jams are all about sharing songs\, making new friends\, and enjoying a relaxing and casual evening of irresistible string band music. ALL are welcome to join the circle for an afternoon or evening playing and listening to classic grass\, new grass and folk favorites. We sometimes refer to our genre as eclectic acoustic. Red Spruce and Adirondack Song Dogs will kick off each session with a few tunes then open the floor for musicians to lead their favorite bluegrass tunes and folk music\, backed up by the other pickers in the gathering. Simple tunes are always popular! So sharpen up your axe\, come prepared with your song\, and let us hear some good old fast\, high and lonesome\, some slow and low\, or a good old favorite. All are welcome! What is a Slow Jam? It is a group of string instrument players and singers who get together to have fun making music. The “slow” modifier indicates that it is targeted to the following musicians: people who have been playing solo and want to get used to playing in a group setting: people who have just learned how to play and want to play with others; people who have instruments that have been gathering dust for a “few” years; experienced players who are trying out playing instruments other than their primary instrument; people who are comfortable playing their instrument but want to become more comfortable singing/leading a song.. The tunes are played at 80 to 110 BPM and usually in basic keys such a G\, A\, D\, C major\, but it always sounds great to play in some minor keys such as “a”\, “e”\, and “g”. We will try to avoid “jam busters.” It is our hope that after this experience you will feel more comfortable playing at the many open jams and open mics that can be found in our area. \n		\n	\n	 \n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	 \n	\n\n		\n\n	\n	 \n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	 \n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All

The Bopsters delve deeply into vocal improvisation; Vocalese\, the art of penning lyrics to instrumental jazz solos; and their original songs and arrangements further the tradition of modern jazz\, bebop\, and the blues. Formed in New York City in 2012\, the group—Amy London\, Jeanne O’Connor\,  Tomas Cruz\, and Dylan Pramuk—honors bebop tradition while pushing it into the present with exhilarating precision and creativity. Described by The New Yorker as “expert practitioners of vocalese\,” The Royal Bopsters bring jazz standards to life with electrifying four-part harmony and a fearless embrace of improvisation. Their performances are as intellectually rich as they are soulful and swinging—balancing tribute and innovation in every arrangement. Their critically acclaimed debut\, The Royal Bopsters Project\, featured collaborations with vocal jazz giants including Mark Murphy\, Jon Hendricks\, and Sheila Jordan\, and was named a top release by DownBeat\, JazzTimes\, and The New York Times. Their follow-up\, Party of Four\, continues their mission with dazzling group chemistry and original arrangements that have captivated audiences from top jazz clubs to international festivals. All four members are also renowned jazz educators at institutions like The New School\, NYU\, William Paterson\, and Montclair State—bringing their vast knowledge of jazz history and vocal technique to the stage in every performance. SAMPLE SONG Don’t miss this rare chance to experience four master vocalists lighting up the room with bebop brilliance\, boundless joy\, and the timeless magic of voices united in harmony.
