What's the Coffee Shop Jam?

The Coffee Shop Jam, held twice a year in the spring and fall, is an opportunity for my guitar students, Joe Walker's guitar students, Andrew Rudd's drum students, and Brady Kish's bass students to perform in a relaxed, fun environment. It’s part recital, part open mic, and part rock concert.

We organize the Jam guided by five principles:

• Having Fun
  Playing music is all about spreading joy.


• Providing a Memorable, Meaningful Experience
  When everything's going right, live music can be a transcendent experience for both performers and audience members. We want to make that happen.


• Sustainability
  We want the Jam to flourish for years to come.


• Real-World Experience
  The Jam gives students a little taste of what professional gigging musicians experience.


• Motivation
  The promise of glory on the stage is a great motivator for polishing those chops.
