Regular open blues jam session at the Horse & Groom where musicians and audience members can bring their instruments and play.
Pete & Phil's Blues Jam is back at the Horse & Groom on Wednesday 11 November, running from 7.30pm to 10.30pm. It's a regular night for the pub, so if you've been around the Salisbury music scene for a while, you've probably come across it before. The format is an open jam session: musicians of all abilities are welcome to bring their instruments and join in, and the audience is just as welcome to stay and listen.
One of the things that makes it easy to turn up is that the backline is provided. You don't need to lug your own amp or drum kit across town; the sound equipment is already there, so you can just bring your instrument and get stuck in. Whether you're a seasoned player or someone who's just started picking up a guitar or a harmonica, the open-door approach means there's no audition or particular level you need to be at to take a turn.
It's a social night as much as a musical one. The jam has its own following online, with a dedicated Facebook group and a venue Facebook page where you can keep track of when it's on. If you're not playing, it's still a good spot to spend a midweek evening listening to a few different blues players trade turns on stage.
