Gene Harris Jazz Jam Session
About this Event
3408 W Chinden Blvd, Garden City, ID 83714
One of the most profound and lasting impacts that the late Gene Harris had on the Boise community was his presence at local jam sessions. Gene could be found downtown every night playing with students in a jam session setting. Gene would patiently accompany them as they experienced the living American art form of jazz in the same way that he and the other great jazz masters learned. This type of experience is becoming increasingly rare among the formative experiences of jazz students worldwide.
Join us to celebrate and continue this long-running tradition.
Jam sessions are free and open to members of the public. All Ages (Under 21 cannot sit at the bar).
