Community Jams

Portland musicians of all abilities: Keep jamming! Let us know what you are working on, and tune in online to our friendly Twitch livestreams with back patio guests as weather permits. Visit http://www.twitch.tv/communityjams/ on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays at 2pm and Wednesdays at 7pm. Say hello in the chat window and add some requests. We’ll create live backing tracks of your favorite songs while you listen or play along at home!

Anyone out there interested in helping us with social media? We are looking for extra help as we navigate ways to reach the music community online. Drop at note at play@communityjams.org

Don’t forget – we still rely on your donations to keep things running. Please consider one-time or monthly donations on Patreon to help us cover the costs of gear, online broadcasting, and holding our lease space until COVID clears up!

While respecting guidelines for preventing the spread of coronavirus, we are taking a break from our new studio space at 211 SE Madison St inside East Creative Collective, a centrally-located studio and gallery for artists. We are working on alternative outdoor jam opportunities and online music collaborations. Send us an email at play@communityjams.org to learn how to join!

We also host online meetups where we socialize and broadcast (livestream) backing tracks for you to play or sing along with at home. These meetups are presented through Zoom for our casual video chats or through our Twitch tv channel for regular musical broadcasts. If you’re more interested in the new world of synchronized online jams, read our info on NINJAM and send us a message at play@communityjams.org.

Would you like to volunteer to help connect musicians through live music? We’re looking for a few folks that are interested in helping with marketing, website management, and social media. Email play@communityjams.org to get involved!
