Baltimore Old Time Events Calendar
Happy December! A chill is in the air but there's a plethora of soul-nourishing events this month to keep you jammin and groovin. First up the Baltimore Old Time Jam tomorrow night at the Green Room (3600 Hickory Ave) hosted by Ken & Brad Kolodner. Join us from 7-10pm for tunes, drinks and eats. All are welcome to join the jam or come just to listen. Slow jam from 7-8pm before we kick up the tempo.
This Sunday, Charm City Junction is making their debut at the 8x10 in Federal Hill teaming up with the fiery roots fusion band Twisted Pine. It's going to be a spectacular show and we hope to see you there. Doors at 7pm. More info HERE
I'm hosting a house concert on December 19 featuring The Shoats, one of my favorite Old-Time stringbands on the scene today. They won the band contest at the famed Clifftop festival a couple years ago. They are immensely talented and I'm stoked they're playing in my living room. More info HERE
