Local musicians, join us around the outdoor fireplace for an evening of casual jamming sponsored by Everett Jewelers!
All instruments, all ages, and all skill levels are very welcome – this friendly gathering is to have fun and encourage one another.
Please bring a few songs with simple chord structures that others can easily play along with. Musicians will take turns playing lead lines along with the rhythms.
The group gathers every first and third Thursday, weather permitting.
Any questions, please email: reverett@everettjewelers.com.
