JAM is excited to announce that we will be hosting the JAM Stage as part of the official Bluegrass Live! festival at this year's International Bluegrass Music Association's celebration in Raleigh, NC. The festival opens up to the public (street fest free for all) Friday & Saturday, September 30 and October 1, 2022 in downtown Raleigh. This will be the seventh year of programming at IBMA!
If you are interested in playing on the JAM stage, please complete this form:
***First priority will be given to those performers with a "JAM Program Connection" under the age of 21. This means someone in your group has had meaningful experience with an official JAM affiliate.
***Second priority will be given to youth performers without a technical JAM connection if schedule allows
***Performers should be capable of playing a 40 minute set with prior performance experience
***Honorariums/stipends to help with travel costs will be available to performers with a JAM program connection
***Individual performers will be considered, but duos, trios, or bands are sought after. Adults may play with youth performers in any configuration.
***If you are a performer seeking other youth musicians for accompaniment, please contact us! (info below)
