“It was absolutely awesome, with 43 people. We ran out of chairs.”
This was how Siana Kelly referred to Mountain Spruce Community Events Centre’s (MSCEC) April 14 Jam Session.
Musicians came from all over the Interlakes area, and included accordions, sax, djembe drum, bongo drum, banjo and the requisite guitars. It was such an inspiring evening that it kept going until the wee hours.
Come enjoy the next Jam Session at the centre on Pettyjohn Road, Sulphurous Lake at 7 p.m. on May 12.
