This is the first in a series of monthly (or however often it shakes out) klezmer nights that include a short tune-learning workshop, an open jam session for all ages and skill levels, and a performance by a rotating cast of featured hosts. Bring your voice, your instrument, your dancing shoes, or just your ears! Learning by ear is encouraged, but sheet music is also available in a variety of keys and clefs.

We ask for a $10 - $20 suggested donation. No one is turned away for lack of funds.

Doors at 6pm | Jam at 6:30 | Performance at 8:00

Tate and Jimmy have been teacher and assistant together for workshops, jam sessions, and classes in Seattle through The Rhapsody Project. As recipients of a grant from the Washington Cultures program, they have spent much time together exploring Yiddish music and sometimes baking challah together. Join us at 6:30pm (doors at 6:00) on July 25th to jam with us and at 8pm to hear us perform what we've been working on throughout the last year!

Tate plays violin in many different styles of music and often performs with The Rhapsody Songsters. He also studies biology at the UW. Jimmy plays trombone with many groups, including the klezmer brass band, Shpilkis, and Bellingham’s own Hot Damn Scandal.
