Event Description

The next punky Jam at Roswell!

I am Steve Swellsy, bassist from the local band Triple-J, and I’m holding a punky jam evening at Roswell Rehearsals at 7pm. Come along and bash out some tunes (see list below – not all punk).

Although this isn’t a teaching event, any ages and abilities are welcome, so if you can play a few chords, hit bass strings or bash biscuit tins and haven’t played with others before, come along, there will be something here for you. Previously girls and guys were able to jump up and play for others for the first time, awesome!

Drop me a note with any ideas or suggestions or just to let me know you are coming (see Facebook Event link). I look forward to seeing you!!
