***8/25/23 UPDATE: Josanne Francis has gotten stuck in Trinidad with a airline workers strike, so Domenic Lewis will be jumping in to play alongside Victor Provost on steel pan!***

The jam is turning 14 years old this month! We are celebrating all through August and September with awesome pairings of special guests leading the jam–including Nataly Merezhuk (violin), Dominique Bianco (voice), Seth Kibel (woodwinds), Frank Silva (woodwinds), Mercedes Beckman (sax), Tommy Holladay (guitar), Abe Mamet (French horn), Chris Barrick (vibes), Brad Linde (sax), Simone Baron (accordion), and many more.

Up this Sunday (8/27/23) is #Pan-demonium, a tribute to World Steel Pan Day featuring Victor Provost and Josanne Francis (now Domenic Lewis) on steel pans.

Domenic and Victor will be joined by a special Fourth Sunday house band of Aleks Izotov (keys), Parker Speirs (guitar), Steve Arnold (bass), and Keith Butler (drums).

So come sit in with the band and throw your support to a great local joint! 6:30-9:00pm @ Haydee’s (3102 Mount Pleasant Street NW). No cover!

Facebook event here.

…and mark your calendars for the rest of August and September as we continue to celebrate 14 years!
