On Sunday afternoons, the Hostel Café in Portland, Oregon provides a friendly setting for this TrailJams Irish traditional tune session. TrailJams is a music community focused on making acoustic music together outside for the enjoyment of the musicians and of people passing by. The cozy café makes a great place to keep the music going in the winter. In better weather, the tune playing moves out to the café’s courtyard. Guests of the Hostel Café and the adjoining Northwest Portland Hostel are likely to settle at one of the nearby tables to enjoy the music.

COVID Policy:
Please be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 if you are joining this session — that is a request, not a requirement.

Sessions are led by Marina Dodgson (fiddle) and Maurice Condie (guitar). These are open access sessions, so there’s no need to book in advance, you’re welcome to just turn up and join in!

We believe great things happen when we play tunes together! People connect with each other and make friends, and we keep our music traditions alive by sharing tunes and passing them on. What’s more, playing tunes can make you feel happy, and if you do it often enough, you’ll notice that you are getting better at playing your instrument too!

It turns out that you don’t even have to be in the same place…great things still happen when we play music together, online from the comfort of your own home.

Phoenix Folk Ltd exists to promote participation and performance in folk and acoustic music, song and dance across the North East of England. We aim to be a friendly face of folk music, to help keep alive the great traditions of folk music and to encourage talent and personal musical development.

Everyone is muted, which means that you hear your own instrument, completing a trio with our fiddle and guitar. You can play the tune, or try some harmony!

Tony Becker of San Jose, California and Mark Wallis of Gloucester, England host this Transatlantic session for all interested parties on Wednesdays at 8:00 PM UK time. For American visitors, please note we are now all on standard ‘winter‘ time, so that is 12:00 PM Pacific in the USA.

Open to all who play traditional Irish music and It has the obvious limitations of Zoom in that only one musician can play at a time. But we go round the ‘room’ and take it in turns - no pressure though and the baton can be passed if you just want to listen. We just play for a couple of hours.

On a good day we have a variety of instruments from pipes to Melodeon, banjo to fiddle and it can be a good way to pick up tunes. It is very friendly and we welcome everyone. The only criterion is we try to stick to Irish traditional.

Master button accordion player John Whelan hosts a free tune learning slow session on Zoom. The session starts at 2:30 pm Pacific time, lasts for about one hour, with a 30 minute break, and starting the Taking Time Slow Session at 4 pm Pacific.

Players and listeners of all levels are very welcome to enjoy playing or hearing favorite tunes at a moderate tempo, along with the all-important warmth of connection that shared music brings into our lives, even — or rather, especially — now.

This is also a great opportunity for learning new tunes, as everybody but the session leader (John) will be muted while they play. Unlike an in-person session you can noodle along to your heart’s content, and nobody will ever know unless you tell them.

John sends out the Zoom link and tune list to his newsletter subscribers every week, usually on Tuesday evening (Pacific time). Please make sure to sign up for his email newsletter, on his website, using the link below. That is all you need to do — no separate sign-up process required!

This 8-week class is led by Avery Hill and will cover/review all the basics you need to know for early success in your ‘ukulele playing, $165 for eight classes/$30 drop-in.

Have you recently treated yourself to a new ‘ukulele, or received one as a gift? Or have you had one in the closet you are ready to finally dust off? Or perhaps the pandemic has kept you from your ‘ukulele too long, and you are ready to dive back into playing?

Do you receive a reduced or fixed income? I believe that everyone has the right to access and engage in the arts in meaningful ways. While I periodically raise my teaching rates to reflect an increased cost in living, as well as an increase in experience and expertise, I believe music education should be accessible to everyone and we all benefit from an economically diverse class environment.

Beyond Beginner ‘U. kulele is an advanced beginner ukulele class for players with basic skills looking to take it to the next level, led by Avery Hill., $165 for eight classes/$30 drop-in. It is part of Artichoke Community Music School, but held at an off site location - NOT at Artichoke Music.

It’s fairly easy for some folks to pick up the ?ukulele and get themselves started. However, at some point, everyone needs a bit more guidance, perhaps some accountability, and the fun and support of a community to get them beyond beginner ?ukulele skills. That’s exactly what this class is designed to do! This class will use popular and accessible songs to build up our repertoire of chords, keys, strum patterns and maybe even a fingerpicking pattern or two! Participants will receive a weekly recap email and links to practice videos to support their weekly practice between classes.

This class is recommended for players who are comfortable with:

playing songs with the chords C, F, G(7), Am, and maybe more
a basic strum pattern or two
taking risks to learn new techniques and material
