It's your first time with us. You don't know anybody (yet). You've summoned up the courage to put your name down on that sign-in sheet - well done! - but now you're nursing a drink and feeling a bit nervous. You're worried that when it comes to it, you'll lose your way in the middle of a number, feel foolish and as if you "let everyone down"...

Relax. No one is here to judge you, least of all your fellow jammers, because we've all been where you are now and we know what it feels like. Every Jam you'll find players at every level of talent and experience - from complete newcomers to seasoned pro's - get up onstage together with one simple aim: to have fun playing the music we love. And y'know what? It works!
