Every third Saturday of the month, Zuma Coffee becomes a crowded bluegrass and old-time music venue. Those who want to get a seat inside should arrive well before the 2 pm start time. The eager-to-play musicians often get going before then, and the gathering crowd grows large as a result. The jam session is part jam and part stage show. The musicians face the audience, not each other, as is the customary arrangement at a mountain jam session, and most stand to play rather than sit. All musicians who want to join in and play are welcome, regulars or not, and a place in the line is made available. The jam session is open to everyone and focuses on old-time and bluegrass music. Listeners are welcome. The coffee is tasty, and lunch is served… don’t forget the Zuma gold cookies!
