Newark Acoustic Jam

About this event

We welcome acoustic guitarists of all skill levels, as well as vocalists and those who play mandolin, harmonica, tambourine, bass, flute, or other instruments. Even if you don't play or sing, you are welcome to observe and enjoy. Please bring a music stand, tuner and capo (as appropriate), and 10 copies of 3–5 songs you would like to lead. This is normally sufficient. If you don't have a music stand, you can look on with someone next to you. Charts should include chords and lyrics. Ultimate Guitar and Chordie have large online libraries for free. We take turns leading the group in songs which span traditional to contemporary acoustic guitar-friendly pop, rock, and blues. Keep in mind that beginners might be present, and someone might be hearing your song for the first time. It's about having fun while learning and sharing our music. Please join us!
