This meetup caters to an advanced beginner/intermediate level player. The jam happens every SECOND and FOURTH MONDAY of the MONTH -- even when I forget to post it on the site. As the jam has evolved, I have hired a rotating group of leaders who lead the jam from 7:30-9:30. This means that I must charge a $5.00 fee, so we can pay a leader. Each leader will choose 25-30 of their favorite bluegrass/old time songs. Click on the "Pages" tab at the top of the page for a description of our leaders and …

For anyone interested in performing and/or learning traditional Cuban music and meeting fellow Cuban and hispanic music performers, let's meet up and jam! For the most part, this is just a Cuban music-focused jam session, but now and again we'll welcome teachers to perform workshops for more structured teaching. Also, while it's a distinct possibility that we'll perform in front of them at some point, this is a meetup for *musicians* interested in Cuban music, not dancers.
