Monthly Activities

Slow Jams


Slow Jams are held on the second Tuesday of the month 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm at the Kalamazoo Public Library on the 3rd floor Van Deusen Room, 315 S. Rose St., Downtown Kalamazoo, MI

Acoustic stringed instrument players are welcome to join members of GLAMA for a fun jam based on simple chord progressions and slow to medium tempos. It is helpful to know several chords and be able to change from one to the other. You are encouraged to bring a tuner and a capo.

Basic jamming tips included!

Beginners welcome!
