JAMGASM2: A Benefit for DiverseArts Culture Works

Saturday, March 1st from 12:00pm to Sunday, March 2nd, 2014 12:00am (CT)

About

Get ready for a music experience like none other in Austin or Texas! Following the success of the Jazz OUTside series started in 2012 at Kenny Dorham's Backyard which closed the 2013 dates with a Super Session/Jamgasm of nearly 8 hours of non-stop improvised music now comes a reach for the new record of 12 hours! That's 12 hours of non-stop total improvisation with a plethora of musicians, poets, dancers, artists, etc. in rotating shifts to keep it all going non-stop.

Everyone is welcome. There will be a time when the show is mostly acoustic as well as full-on electric. All participating musicians are free to weave in and out of this non stop jam except during the acoustic part when we need to keep volume low. If you would like to ensure you will be able to perform, it would be a good idea to arrive early in the afternoon and reserve a few hours for hanging out.

The event's performers will include: Willie Oteri, Chris Maresh, Brannen Temple, Ephraim Owens, Joshua Thomson, Bruce Saunders, James Fenner, members of Brazilian Space Program, WD-41, Lost Cat, word/jazz lowstars and many more.

Part of the event will be a silent auction to help raise funds for DiverseArts Culture Works. Please consider donating an item such as art, craft, jewelry, music gear, etc.
