5:15 pm – My Beginner-to-Intermediate Bluegrass Jam continues to meet nearly every Tuesday, but you’ll have to email me at tonywatt@gmail.com to be sure. This is a “teacher-directed” jam where we never know what songs we’re going to play, but we’re limited to no instrumentals and no very fast nor very complex songs.

6:30 pm – Kelley’s Intermediate Bluegrass Jam meets every week and is suitable for those who have some experience jamming already and can play songs and tunes, recognize chord changes, and play well with others.

6:45 pm – Ed’s Fiddle Tunes at 80 BPM Jam now meets in the hallway behind the kitchen, right by the stairwell to the garage. This jam focuses on classic bluegrass instrumentals played at very reasonable tempos.

7:00 pm – Wayne’s Intermediate-to-Advanced Bluegrass Jam typically evolves out of Kelley’s Intermediate Jam and then moves out back unless the weather is nice enough to play outside.

Plus, jamming throughout the restaurant until all hours!

For more information about any of these jams, please visithttps://bluegrasstuesdays.com/jams.html and email me at tonywatt@gmail.com if you have any questions.

OTAF Old Time Jam at Russell Field
2025-06-12 19:30 - 22:30, 2025-06-19 19:30 - 22:30 | Russell Field Playground, 359 Rindge Ave, Cambridge, MA, United States
Old-Time Almost Fridays jams will be moving to the Russell Field Playground near Alewife in N. Cambridge. It’s less than a quarter-mile from the end of Route 2, has ample parking, and is less than a five-minute walk from the Alewife T Station. The schedule of the jams will remain similar:
7:30 pm Beg/Int Old-Time Jam
8:30 pm Int/Adv Old-Time Jam
Weekly hosts will keep things moving along.
Here’s what we’ve learned about jamming at the Russell Field Playground:
(1) There are two parking lots on Rindge Ave. on either side of the little league park (Comeau Field): the lot with the cul-de-sac (to the west of the field) is usually full, but there’s tons of space in the lot to the east of the ballpark, which is the lot for the Francis J. McCrehan Swimming Pool at 359 Rindge Ave., in Cambridge, MA 02140 (please note this is not the same location as Russell Field, which is the football field next-door).
(2) We often jam near the sprinkler spot (a.k.a. splash pad) near the yellow canopy, which is between the pool, the playground, and the ball field.
(3) There are working port-a-johns right there, so everyone can have that true “festival experience”.
(4) Please bring a folding chair (preferably without arms).
(5) It’s not as well lit as some people might like, so if you have a small camping lantern, you might want to bring one.
(6) Mosquitos were mostly not an issue, but you still might want to bring bug spray or wear heavier clothes, as long as it’s not too hot.

Alison Brown at Groton Hill
2025-06-12 20:00 - 22:00 | Groton Hill Music Center, 122 Old Ayer Road, Groton, MA, 01450, United States
Alison Brown doesn’t play the banjo.Alison Brown plays music on the banjo.

Acoustic instrumental music has never been so beautifully represented as by Alison Brown. As one of the most multi-faceted minds on today’s roots music scene, every one of Alison’s endeavors is marked by innovation, intelligence, and grace. As a banjo player, she throws out the textbook when it comes to playing the banjo and the result is a sound that blends the rugged drive of bluegrass with the harmonic sensibilities of jazz.
