This week was a small but mighty Jam, one that allowed us to play around with more complicated rhythms that are difficult to tackle in a large group, such as a song by Tool which was our “magic or tragic” feature of the night. Which one was it- magic or tragic? The jury may still […]

Spring is a season for growth, and we’re all about that here at GroMusic! This week we slowed it down with songs like “Wild Horses,” sped it up with others like “Let the Good Times Roll,” and expanded our minds by learning an original from one of our members, Joe. Jam sessions are a fantastic […]

The luck of the Irish was with us […]
