Your first jam

The first time, you pick a jam that fits, learn one tune from memory, find the signup list, watch a set or two, and then play.

How a first jam goes

Walk in ready.

In a lesson or two before your first jam, we cover the tunes people call at that jam, how the signup works, and how a set goes. Once you're my student, I'll help you pick the right jam, and I'll be there.

Book a lesson

$75 an hour, in your home or on Zoom. You pay after the lesson.
