We sometimes refer to our genre as eclectic acoustic. \n \nRed 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! \n \nWhat is a Slow Jam? \n \nIt 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: 6:30 pm	\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				Get Tickets			\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		Peak Jazz Series: The Levin Brothers\n\n				Jazz\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								event\n			\n					\n\n		\n			May 28 • 7 PM

SUMMARY:66th Anniversary Night: True Stories From the Early Days of Caffe Lena

Some of the things that have happened at Caffe Lena are inspiring\, or side-splittingly funny\, or just soooo typical of the way things were back in the ‘60s and ‘70s. These stories live in the memories of the performers\, the regulars\, and those who helped Lena behind the scenes. Tonight we’re going to hear these stories first-hand\, and we’re going to record them for posterity. Because Caffe Lena is a national treasure\, and this venue’s story needs to live forever. \nYou’ll learn about the day in 1959 when Lena and her husband first saw the disused space that would become their Caffe\, Bob Dylan’s real relationship with Lena and the venue\, the unusual way Lena booked her performers\, and much more. \nOur storytellers are: George Ward\, Lew & Michael Taub\, Joe Bruchac\, Joe Deuel\, Field Horne\, Don Armstrong (video)\, Jack & Connie Hume\, Gordon Boyd\, Sandy Silverhart\, Michael Jerling\, Teresina Huxtable\, Bob Warren\, Peter Davis\, Christine Lavin (video)\, John Kribs\, Lou & Peter Berryman (video)\, Garnet Rogers (video)\, and maybe a few more. \nWe’ll have limited slots available for pre-show recording sessions with additional storytellers. If you have something you’d like to share\, please reach out to sarah@caffelena.org to learn more. \nStream this show live at CaffeLenaTV. Livestream available for $5 – 100% of live stream tickets on CaffeLenaTV benefit the artists. Subscribe for unlimited live streaming\, two week access to recent shows\, and Caffe Lena's video archive. \nNote: Caffe Lena does not permit ticket reselling above face value. Tickets purchased for the purpose of resale may be canceled without notice\, and refunds for such purchases will not be granted  \n	\n	 \n\n\n\n\n		\n		Doors Open\n		Doors Open: 6:30 pm	\n	 \n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						Member\n						$32.53\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						General\n						$36.87\n					\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						Child or Student\n						$18.44\n					\n				\n						\n				 \n				inclusive of fees\n			\n		\n	 \n		\n					\n				Get Tickets			\n					\n				Streaming\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
