Come on down for an old time strings music jam session at the Ely Folk School! Bring a fiddle, banjo, guitar, mandolin, dulcimer, or bass to EFS! Play along, or just sit back and listen. Everyone, no matter your skill or comfort level, is welcome to play along, listen, or even dance.
These jam sessions have an emphasis on string instruments. It is a jam session, so sheet music is not provided, rather chords are called out.
Joe Smith, Ely resident and long time jam member, will be helping to lead the string session and will provide a list of songs that will likely be covered during the jam (coming soon.) This jam is also led by the band for the Ely Folk School Community Dance, including community favorite, Terrence Smith.
After jamming, lace up your dancing shoes then meet us again at 7pm at the Ely Community Center for the Community Contra Dance!
Registration not required, and the jam is open to all. Folks are welcome to play, or just come and listen. Please note that this takes place at the Ely Folk School, not the Community Center.
This event would not be possible without the generous sponsorship of Ely Family Dental.
