Looking to connect with somebody local to play with?

We've just added our local musician map to the site.

The goal of this feature is to allow you advertise the instruments and styles of music you play to other users in your area.

Give it a try. If you are a registered user you can add yourself to the map from your "Jam profile" page within your user account. You can even type up a short message to display along with your map pin.

If you have not signed up with folkjam and are looking to find users in your area then sign up, type in your city, and add yourself to the map.

Just leave feedback as comments to this post. We want to know how you like this latest addition to folkjam.org

Jamming

Sure will be nice when Scott and Shawn get off'n their butts, writes us some dynomite software and get us a virtual jam. We all sit in front of our computers and make music to what comes out.

What is the hot tune in West "by God" Virginia?

Howdy, I'm looking for some musicians to jam with in the Cheyenne, WY/Fort Collins, CO area. I play guitar right now, but am willing to learn other instrument. I am new to bluegrass but am an experienced guitarist on several styles of music, mostly country though.

Bluegrass is what trips my trigger now. I haven't been this moved by a style of pickin in decades.

So, if you're interested in playing and teaching a newbie some of the tricks and licks to playing bluegrass, then drop me a line. I would love to get together and jam.

Look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thanks!
Bill
