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		Doors Open\n		Doors Open: 7:30 pm	\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n	\n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						Member\n						$27.11\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						General\n						$30.37\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						Child or Student\n						$15.18\n					\n				\n						\n				 \n				inclusive of fees\n			\n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n					\n				Get Tickets			\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		JAZZ at Caffe Lena : The Chuck Lamb Trio with Special Guest Eric Person\n\n				Jazz\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 14 • 7 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Peak Jazz Series: Charlie Ballantine\n\n				American Roots Folk Jazz\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 30 • 7 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		JAZZ at Caffe Lena : The Chuck Lamb Trio with Special Guest TBA\n\n				Jazz\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			May 12 • 7 PM

SUMMARY:Folk Heritage Series: Andy Cohen\, Eleanor Ellis & Bill Ellis
DESCRIPTION:Jazz		\n\n		\n			Share:\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\nFor fans of acoustic blues\, it just doesn't get any better than this. Three towering talents take us on a rollicking tour through the Delta\, the Piedmont\, and the Paramount record catalog of the '20s and '30s\, and pieces learned first-hand in the homes of the creators themselves. \n \nEleanor Ellis is a celebrated master of country and Piedmont blues–one of the most significant women in the acoustic blues genre. She is a torchbearer especially for her friend\, mentor and musical partner\, blues & gospel singer and guitarist Flora Molton\, with whom she recorded two albums: I Want to Be Ready to Hear God When He Calls and the eponymous Flora Molton\, recorded for Radio France. \n \nAcclaimed Americana/Blues guitarist William Lee Ellis was named after his godfather\, legendary bluegrass pioneer Bill Monroe. His father\, Tony Ellis\, was one of Monroe's Blue Grass Boys. After earning a master's degree in classical guitar performance\, Ellis met Piedmont blues giant Reverend Gary Davis. "Davis was a great sacred bluesman…There's a combination of the heavenly and the hellish\, there are wonderful dynamics\, tension and drama." In his quest to make the music's message live for today\, Ellis has developed a style of Americana all his own. \n \nBlues picker and Caffe Lena stalwart Andy Cohen is a connector between the legendary bluesmen of the last century (Big Bill Broonzy\, Rev. Gary Davis\, Honeyboy Edwards) and today's generation of blues revivalists. As a youngster coming up in the '60s folk revival\, Andy began the explorations with "source" musicians that led to his current status as a virtuoso fingerstyle guitarist and "walking\, talking folk-blues-roots music encyclopedia." An Andy Cohen performance encompasses the well-known\, the obscure and the weirdly wonderful\, and often involves autoharp and dolceola along with acoustic 6 and 12-string guitars. \n \nSAMPLE SONG \n \nSAMPLE SONG \n \nStream this show live at Caffè Lena TV.
