Feb 3rd, 7:00 Old Time Jam Hosted by Len Feldman
Concertina player Len Feldman will lead this month’s Old Time jam. A recent arrival in Port Townsend from Haines Alaska, Len's repertoire includes often-played tunes as well as a smattering of unusual and interesting tunes rarely heard in these parts. The tune he will teach at the beginning of the jam is an A modal tune, Clinch Mountain Backstep. We will be playing in A in a couple of tunings. All abilities are welcome.
