String Band Jam

Teachers will lead Old Town School of Folk Music students and community members in a jam of beloved string band repertoire taught at the school. While the jam is designed for fiddles, banjos, mandolins, and guitars, other instruments are a part of the American string band tradition and can potentially fit in here. The jam will pull from the tunes listed below (and others!).
