Jam Session

The September PineCone bluegrass jam is always special – it’s the Monday night before IBMA’s World of Bluegrass kicks off in Raleigh!

The monthly PineCone Bluegrass Jam is a “circle jam,” where musicians gather in a circle and play together, that meets on the fourth Monday of each month at Transfer Food Hall in downtown Raleigh! Transfer has an outdoor patio, parking, and food and drink options as well. A few chairs will be available, and you’re welcome to bring your own chair as well.

Russell Johnson, band leader for Diamond Creek and Director of the Carolina Bluegrass Band at UNC-Chapel Hill, facilitates this jam. The repertoire includes both instrumental tunes and vocal songs. Whether you’re a first-time jammer or a veteran, you’re welcome to learn the tunes and play along, or just listen and observe! However, please note that this is not a learning jam (often referred to as a “slow jam” in bluegrass circles). Nonetheless, it’s a great place to meet other musicians who share your enthusiasm for bluegrass.

Please remember – every jam is different! This jam tends to draw a big crowd, and it is open to musicians of all skill levels. Please help us make sure that newer players feel welcome! Also, big, mixed level jams can be challenging. Patience and kindness are appreciated! 

This jam is outdoors. Masks are not required, but those who choose to wear them are still welcome to do so. Masks are strongly recommended, particularly for people who are not fully vaccinated.
