Make Music Day

Make Music Day appeals to all levels of musicians and music lovers alike. The goal of the celebration is to fill public spaces with music making. Amateurs and professionals of all genres are encouraged to participate. Whether you’re a songwriter, jazz improvisor, worship leader, country star or rocker, we want to hear you! With all of this in mind, the Lubbock Cultural Arts Foundation, in partnership with the South Plains Mall and Tarpley Music, will host our first ever Make Music Day jam session. The jam session tradition has held a unique place in American culture. From the famed all night jazz jams at Minton’s Playhouse in New York to our very own Sunday Night Jams at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q, we couldn’t imagine a better way to celebrate music in our community.

 

Attendees are encouraged to bring their instruments and join us on stage for a fun filled afternoon of public music making. There will be a professional backing rhythm section consisting of keyboard, bass, and drums. Are you a songwriter? We’d love to hear your original music. Our backing band can learn your music on the spot, or you can perform solo. Have charts? Even better! Be sure to include them when you register, link below. (registration is not required but will guarantee your spot for the performance).

 

We are so thankful to the South Plains Mall and Tarpley Music for partnering with us for this joyous event! Join us at the food court on June 21st from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. and bring your instrument!     Stay tuned to Lubbock Cultural Arts Foundation for more information about our jam session and a comprehensive list of all music performances in Lubbock on Make Music Day.
