MusiCares + SIMS Present: SOBER JAM
The MusiCares Sober Jam is a monthly event presented by MusiCares and their local affiliate partners The SIMS Foundation and Gibson Guitar Texas, offering musicians an opportunity to perform in a safe and sober environment.
The event is the last Monday of every month and begins at 7pm with an open Blues Jam, allowing guests time to arrive, mingle and find their way to a seat. At 8pm, the space will transition to a “Listening Room” where we feature several “open mic” style performances (solor or with a band). The Sober Jam concludes again with a open Blues Jam at which point we invite anyone to stage who has not yet had an opportunity to perform.
We consider all guests to be participants in the Sober Jam. By simply showing up, listening to the music, and offering an applause between songs, you are playing a meaningful role in creating a safe environment for the performers. In addition to donating their event space, Gibson Guitar also provides a variety of their instruments to play on-stage. More info here.
