2024 jam sessions
"The jam sessions are extremely fun and a great way to improve my playing."
Jam Sessions are a large part of jazz culture and are where musicians play music and learn to play together. They are a great space to meet other jazz musicians too. Students don’t need to have jazz experience but do need to be able to play their instrument and love music!
We provide the sheet music and structure the Jams so that there’s a chance for everyone to focus on and learn one song, and then open up to others. We have the Jazz Real Books in all keys available for students to look through for tunes to call and learn.
"I feel completely comfortable to play in front of the people at Talkin' Jazz because everyone is supportive."
Talkin' Jazz will provide
Drum kit and cymbals (BYO sticks)
Microphones
Amps
Other instruments need to be provided by the students
Jazz Real Books (sheet music) in all keys
Please note, the Brisbane Jazz Club or Talkin’ Jazz do not take responsibility for your instrument while attending the Jam Sessions, Big Band or the Workshops.
The Jam Sessions are not open to the public and they are for students only. While we appreciate the support and interest of parents, the Jam Session space is exclusively for the students.
"The Jam Sessions are laidback and good fun, but it still challenges and pushes you to play to your potential."
