Bluegrass up your St. Patrick's Eve festivities with a friendly Bluegrass Jam in West Bend. For extra Blarney points, wear green! I'll bring a few Leprechaun hats, shamrock bling, and cookies!
All bluegrass instruments and level of experience welcome. Banjo, Mandolin, Guitar, Fiddle, Bass, Harmonica, Percussion, etc.
When: Sunday, Mar 16
Time: 1-4pm
Where: Maurin Center at Lac Lawrann Conservancy

Feel free to invite musicians you think would be interested in joining the fun! You may come for a short time or the full time.
We'll likely mostly play well-known easy to intermediate level songs with chord progressions that anybody can follow or learn. The idea is just to have fun playing bluegrass music with other people.

etc etc etc
About the host: I'm a "beginner" fiddle player that started learning as an adult about 7 years ago. I got bored playing by myself in my house. I decided Washington County needed a jam, so I'm hosting one. :)
