UJAM CLUB NIGHTS
with special guest
Maria Manna
Join us for our next monthly club night at Hermann's Jazz Club on Wednesday, March 26th at 7:00pm!
We are pleased to welcome back Maria Manna as our special guest and mentor. Maria is a "founding mother" of UJAM and, after many years as a musician in our local scene, has recently moved back to her home town, Edmonton.
We will celebrate the musical influences of Latin America and its wonderful culture and musicians. All vocalists and instrumentalists are invited to perform their favourite latin songs with the UJAM House Band on stage at Canada's oldest jazz club. Doors open at 5:30 - music starts at 7:00 Bring your friends and family!
Hermann's is an all-ages venue and is always great to see younger participants taking to the stage. Our February event saw 4 performers join us for their first time including musicians and songwriters - two were teenagers! A supportive audience of friends and jazz lovers applauded their performances to make the evening a great success.
Pop your tunes into the form below, then send your charts to ujamsevents@gmail.com. If you need support with providing musical charts, let us know in the email.
Performers and music lovers are all welcome. Enjoy an evening of good food, good drink, good music and good company. What more could anyone ask?
