NEW ARTISTE MUSIC OPPORTUNITY AT THE C CLUB BEVERLEY
Thu 12th March 2020
Jam Session Night with a difference will host its first night on Thursday 19th March at the C Club Beverley.
C Club, the newly renamed Conservative Club on Wyles Road is hosting a new monthly Jam Session Night providing an opportunity for artistes to showcase their talents. It’s a great chance to gain experience in a concert type venue, be on stage on a regular basis and get the chance to perform in front of a live audience at the end of the year. The aim is to give artistes of all levels and music genres an opportunity to perform either with others or on their own, share experiences and meet likeminded artistes, with an emphasis on developing their talent, skills and performances and helping them build future prospects in the entertainment industry.
Ian Sinclair, having previously been an artiste in the area, returned to Beverley and became involved with the C Club social events. Ian says “historically, there were many clubs, pubs and venues for artistes to develop their talents and hone their musical skills through live performances but the lack of venues is now a huge hurdle for artists to perform live in front of audiences.” Ian recalls during the 70’s and 80’s as an artiste you could have 3 or 4 gigs a week and not return to the same venue for over a year. But over time, many of the venues have either stopped having live music altogether or moved to Karaoke and whilst there are many reasons for this demise there are still a few places where live music continues and the C Club is one of these, having monthly cabaret nights and tribute act nights.
Jam Session Nights will run on the 3rd Thursday of each month from 7.30pm with the first session on Thursday 19th March. Artistes of all levels are encouraged and welcome to come along and join in. There will be opportunities for practice and workshops in the lounge and performances in the concert room with PA/mixer equipment and lighting as well as the chance to meet other artistes.
Entry to the Jam nights are free, so if you’re interested in joining in or helping out, sharing your skills and talents or being part of the audience, contact Ian Sinclair (07790 607536 / ian.sinclair@virgin.net or visit: http://jamnight.kllg.co.uk/). Or just come along to the C Club on Wylies Road on the 19th March from 7.30pm to 10.30pm.
