The Beachlands Charter Club is hosting its first Club Jam Night for young musicians on
April 18, from 7.30pm. It is intended to draw in as many people as possible to the club,
manager Sandra Bates says.
“So many of our members have kids who have drums in the garage or play guitars in their bedrooms, but they don’t have a group of local friends away from school that they can sit and jam with.
“The Club Jam Night was born from that concept. We have the perfect facilities for this and the time and space to do it. I think it’s important to use that space for the benefit of our community.”
Many club members with musical experience have volunteered their time to help set up, and one has given the club a set of drums and a PA system.
Bates is hoping to create an atmosphere where anyone, regardless of skill level, can learn to play and play with other music enthusiasts.
Event organiser, Dave Spadafora, says the event provides a great way to bring the community together through a shared love of music.
“Club Jam Night is an opportunity to help bring together people from both our local
community and beyond to play music.
“My goal is to support experienced musicians and those who want to perform but lack a local platform. Every budding singer, guitarist, or band is very welcome, and I know there are many talented individuals in our area we need to encourage.”
The Beachlands Chartered Club is located on the corner of Third View Avenue and Wakelin Road. All are welcome and the Club Jam Night is free.
“The Beachlands Club is eager to welcome the community to utilise its facilities and Jam Night is a key event in supporting that goal.”
