MURFREESBORO,
Tenn. – A good group of the Nashville greater limits Blues musicians find
refuge every Tuesday night at the Bunganut Pig, a local bar in Murfreesboro
that hosts a weekly jam that anyone can sign up to play.
Jam
host CJ Vaughn started the “Blues Jam” about two years ago trying to find
closet blues musicians who were looking to get out and play every week. The
turnout varies, but there is one thing that is for sure: there are plenty of
blues to go around.
Any musician who wants to jam has to show up with his or her instrument
and sign the sign-in sheet. Vaughn puts the musicians into groups of five or
six, and they play three songs together. Any song that a member wants will get
played. On Nov. 28, there were vintage numbers from Jim Croce, and Bessie
Smith, to more current artists like John Mayer.
“This jam is a great time with great people," Vaughn said.
"We hope that the word will continue to grow and more musicians find us
here.”
The Jam is hosted from 7-11 p.m. weekly on Tuesdays at the
Murfreesboro Bunganut Pig, 1602 West Northfield
Boulevard, Murfreesboro, Tenn. 37129. All musicians are welcome,
and anyone looking to catch a good jam is welcome to come watch.
