I invite all fellow musicians, artists, poets, producers, teachers, promoters, deejays, writers, audio techs, lighting designers, and coffee addicts alike to come through Breuekelen Coffee House on Franklin Avenue to make sweet, hot talent with each other at the first official BCH Jam Night.
Musicians will queue up to take the stage in a live shuffle of instrumentation and styles, improvising one-take sets and experimenting with sound and concepts throughout the night.
I hope to see this evolve into a permanent fixture of our community - a forum for people of any age and background to practice their art and share their experience to strengthen our network of local artists.
We'll need help to get there, though, so there will be plenty of opportunities to lend a hand. We will be passing the hat for monetary donations but instrument donations (temporary or permanent), skills, or time will be greatly appreciated.
Of course, there will be free Stumptown Coffee brewing and free WiFi available as well.
This first Jam will rely on whatever instruments and amplification you feel like bringing, and sharing is highly encouraged. Below, though, is our growing backline.
AVAILABLE INSTRUMENTS

- Ludwig 20' Bass, 13' tom, 14' snare, Bosphorous Hi-hats, Wuhan Ride/Crash
