UJAM CLUB NIGHTS
...featuring
you!
"Themes from Nature"
Join us in September for our first monthly UJAM club night of the season! The themes for each club night will be released soon.
Choose a couple of classic jazz tunes or arrange a duet or pick a tune that captures the essence of the theme. We’re excited for touching moments and the unexpected delights our talented vocalists and instrumentalists always bring.
Whether you’re performing, listening, or simply taking in the vibe, let’s make this night a reminder of how music brings us closer.
Thanks to all who made our Club Nights so successful - our volunteer organizing committee of Margot Johnston, Barry Casson, Liam Arthurs, Dave Paulson, Helena Jeeves, and Joy Andrews plus our great musicians including Liam Arthurs, Michael Frey, and Ken Seidman, Barry Gough and Reiner Piehl, not to mention our performers, volunteers, and audience. You all played a vital part in the success of these events!

Each month Universal Jazz Advocates And Mentors presents a themed open mic night of singers and musicians sitting in with our wonderful house band.
Want to perform at Club Night? Sign up below with the titles of one or two songs you'd like to perform.
Then, please submit your song charts and links to example recordings to clubnights@ujam.ca at least 5 days before the show, so the band has time to prepare. If you need help preparing your chart or choosing suitable material, just let us know. PDF versions of the charts are the best, and charts should not be more than 2 pages long.
