OPBSC JAMS
Before you pack up and head to one of our jams we ask you take a look at our level guidelines. We require pickers in our jams to read the guidelines so musicians end up in jam that best suits them and the other musicians in the circle. When in doubt reach out, and we can steer you to the right circle.

You got an event? We got some music for it….
Live music is always more memorable than a Spotify playlist. Booking a bluegrass band for your event is an excellent way to do something truly unique. And we can match your vibe. With dozens of members in the club we are able to build a band to suit your needs. Fancy black tie gig? We got some of the best Django players available. Or maybe you want your wedding on a farm to tie into the aesthetic? We can do it all. Drop us a line and we’ll build the right band for your event and budget.
