Success! Magenta Unplugged – August 9 – 6 to 9 Magenta Theater 1108 main Street

Success! 📅 Date: June 28thth📍 Venue: Magenta Theatre Downtown Vancouver WA

Fabulous musicians rocked the house Saturday night. It is always such a pleasure to have a venue like Magenta Theater in Downtown Vancouver. The support that they give us and the community for the Arts is unsurpassed. Let’s give something back to this wonderful non profit by becoming a volunteer. Need is for a variety of jobs during performances and prep. Like Mandatory Alcohol Server Training (MAST) course to serve during a show.

 

Introductory Jam – Usually 2 nights during a week – Rusty or wanting to get back to basics on jam session techniques. Occasionaly.

Emerging Workshop – People who don’t have a lot of stage experience or are new to their instruments and want to collaborate with others as they learn or are “rusty” and want to brush up.  Focus is on basics of chords, theory, tone, and ear training.
 
Advanced Workshop For more experienced musicians who know how to find alternate chord voicings, can read charts well or can pick up music by ear accurately, and who understand and can apply more advanced theory such as intervals. The Advanced Workshop will also begin to really focus on “band” versus “individual,” helping you to learn how to fit in with other players better and find your own part in the spectrum of sound.

Jam Session™  classes are taught in Vancouver,WA for the emerging or experienced player who wants to get more in touch with improvisation, networking and ease of Jam Sessions Open Mic situations. 

Classes are offered periodically throughout the year with a Blues focus for ease of communication. They are set up for aspiring musicians emerging or intermediate ability level, that want an outlet to raise their comfort level with performing in public (suggested instruments: Guitar, Bass, Key’s, Vocal, Drums, Harmonica, horns, violin).
