BLUEGRASS IN A RACE WITH NATURE! IS IT PRECIPITATION OR PICKING? THAT IS THE QUESTION. (720p-HD)
While, this video is was cut short by the showers of a Winter front, we were fortunate to be joined by several new pickers including Dr. Natalie Hall, a new fiddler from Nashville. Natalie says her New Year’s resolution is to play more bluegrass. It was also a great pleasure to have founder, Jack Lewis, back among the other core pickers.
Jam sessions are for players to interact with other players and make music in a freewheeling environment, without having to be concerned about performing for an audience. Some jams are impromptu, one-time occurrences, while others are weekly events that may happen in a private setting or in a public venue. Jams may focus on a particular style of music or even a particular instrument, and every jam has its own culture and etiquette.
As you watch THE OCOEE JAM, keep in mind this is an OPEN jam. It is not a rehearsed performance. Each picker, in turn, chooses a tune, and he or she sings or plays it accompanied by all the other pickers. Everyone gets a chance no matter the skill level. It seemed that this Jam was composed mostly of experienced pickers. The Jam meets every Friday evening at 6:30 in the parking lot behind the Pizza Hut at 10870 West Colonial Dr., Ocoee, Florida 34761.
