Welcome to DAMJam.org
The Danbury Area Acoustic Jam (DAMJam) meets once a week on Wednesday and plays music for about 3 hours
All levels of talent welcomed. We typically have from 15-25 jammers show up
We Meet At:
Shakedown Street Eats, Bethel, CT
227 Greenwood Avenue, Bethel, Connecticut 06801
Note: Jam is held upstairs.
Our typical Jam starts with some optional socializing.
Some of us setup around 4:30-5 and have dinner beforehand
And then even better
Some of us stay for nightcap when the jam is over.
The instrument of choice is Acoustic Guitar.
We do have a regular Bass player and others that fill in when needed. The bass is the only amplified guitar.
Singing is encouraged but only if you want to.
Percussion is typically handled with a Cajon and other smaller instruments
Flute, Fiddle & Banjo and are just some of the instruments that have participated.
(Electric Guitar is not recommended in order to help keep the volume down.)
The set list changes from week to week and is defined in advance. Just follow along the best you can. We are playing for our own enjoyment!
