Well I don't have pics of all the bands at the Canberra Blues Society jam session, a few because I had to leave early and another because I was playing in it. It's fun to get out an e-Bass (my preference is a run-of-the-mill Fender MiM JB) but I never play it other than for the Blues jams, so it's a bit of a new experience, but it is light to play. And fast... I can get carried away! Otherwise, Key Grip was the host band for the session and they were great to hear, well informed on blues and related styles and capable players all round. The jammers were consistently capable too which bodes well for the blues in town and perhaps is a function of the blues training offered, esp to next gen. Still, the audience numbers were down, perhaps given Hendrix the previous night. But a nice outing and friendly people and great stage gear to indulge in. Much enjoyed.
Key Grip are Leo Joseph (piano), Angela Lount (vocals), Lauren Thurlow (tenor), Alec Coulson (bass) and Mitch Preston (drums). Key Grip were the host band for the monthly Canberra Blues Society jam session at the Harmonie German Club.
