SOUNDS BETTER

IT's DOWN THERE

This week's jam session review of the 28th January Jam Session, is so long it sank to the bottom - scroll down to "The Longest Review" 

Meanwhile...

The Challis Street Fandango

Aneta Graham, ever popular with the locals because she is one,  makes a rare appearance with the Captain Chaos Quartet at the Challis Cafe, Challis Street, Newport. Saturday 3rd Feb, from 10.30am to 12.30

Jazz at the Boatshed Cafe, 

The only cafe in Albert Park,   it is on the lake's edge. Park in Aquatic Drive Carpark behind the Athletics stadium.

Singer Aneta Graham, (again!) with Don Gula (Bass), the usual hack on keys, and someone (but we don't yet know who) soloing) on the warble this weekend as the Boatshed Cafe swings back into action.

About Melbourne Jazz Jammers Inc.

The jam sessions are a side gig run by the Melbourne Jazz Jammers Inc., who are currently spending  more time on the upcoming Newport Festival which will become our main focus in a few weeks. 

If you would like to volunteer for the Festival, or just help pack up after the Jam each week, you are unlikely to meet much resistance. Really...
