A bluegrass jam meets every Tuesday evening at Vine Street Pub & Brewery in Denver, Colorado, hosted by Summers Baker and the Vine Street Bluegrass Band.Jam listings, Colorado Bluegrass Music Society It has no name of its own beyond the street it is on, so this page is titled the way people say it.[unverified]
Single mic
This is a single-mic performance jam rather than a circle.Jam listings, Colorado Bluegrass Music Society Players step up to one microphone and work the old bluegrass choreography — leaning in for a break, stepping back for the rest of it, the band moving around the mic instead of the engineer moving the faders.[unverified]
It is worth knowing which kind of night you are walking into. At a circle jam everybody plays at once and the tunes pass around the ring; here there is a front of the room and an audience in it, and playing means taking a turn rather than joining in. Neither is better. They ask for different nerves.[unverified]
The night of 22 September 2026
A visiting player got through eight or nine tunes over the evening, and the turn to call one came round to him rather than staying with the house band. He called Shady Grove, and sang some of it in throat singing.JMyles, participant[unverified]
That is the detail a newcomer most wants: calling turns reach visitors here. Turn up with an instrument and you will get one.[unverified]
