I run two jams, one in Lenexa, one is in Olathe.

The Olathe jam is Swing/Standards/Show Tunes. We play pass-the-break style.

It was good having a harmonica in the mix. 20 people showed up yesterday - that was a great turnout and a great mix of instruments. Sax, harmonica, cajon (the drum box), trumpet, violins, mandolins, piano, guitars, singers, bass...just great.

I hope we'll see you next month.
