Baltimore Old Time Jam
The legendary Baltimore Old Time & Bluegrass jam is held at The Green Room at the Bluebird Cocktail Room (3600 Hickory Ave) in the Hampden neighborhood just off The Avenue. All are welcome to play along in the jam regardless of skill level or instrument. Even if you don't play, you can come to soak in the scene, listen to the music, grab a drink and have a meal.
Ken & Brad Kolodner lead the Baltimore Old Time Jam from every other Tuesday night 7-10pm. Doors open at 6pm for food and drinks. The first hour of the jam will be a "slow jam" so anyone can hop in and play along at a moderate tempo. From 8-10pm, they'll kick up the tempo for the "fast jam." Imagine a sea of fiddles, banjos, guitars and more all swelling together in a chorus of joyous tunes!
About the venue - The Green Room is a gorgeous event space with wonderful acoustics, a cozy vibe, plenty of room for the jammers and viewers, great drinks of all sorts (beer, wine, cocktails, non-alcoholic options) and awesome food great for dinner or snacks. It is the former location of De Kleine Duivel, a Belgian beer hall. They host a Django jazz jam on Monday nights. For you long-term jammers, it evokes the best of Liam Flynn's and Five & Dime combined.
On the opposite Tuesdays, Alex Lacquement & Friends will lead the Baltimore Bluegrass Jam from 7-10pm for a jam featuring bluegrass songs and instrumentals. Come with a song or two to lead - or just show up and jam along.
Best of all, the jam is FREE!
