Traditional jams near Washington, District of Columbia

The Baltimore Singers Club meets on the second Wednesday of every month in the upstairs of Bertha’s in historic Fells Point, Baltimore from 9 to 11pm. The occasion is very informal, but the beer is good and the craic is mighty. Meetings have so far been well-attended and all songs have been rendered in great voice, as they should be. The repertoire is traditional and old, but newly composed songs in the same vein are welcome. At evening’s end, we with haste retire to the Cafe Hon in Hampden for the weekly session.

Location

This session starts at 8:30pm (EST) and runs for about three hours. Regrettably, there isn't a piano, but we do have a nice acoustic spot. Parking is easily found in any of the vicinity's three parking garages.

The tunes are mostly from the Baltimore and Baltimore/Washington repertoires.

Location

Get together with like-minded lovers of folk music and singing! We meet twice a month to sing and play folk songs, most taken from the Rise Up Singing book. Members also bring lyrics to their favorite songs and hand out copies.

If you're familiar with folk music and are not shy about singing, or you play an acoustic instrument, come on down! Those who can sing harmonies or play fiddle, flute or harmonica are particularly welcome at this point.
