BUCKEYE ROADSHOW ZOOM JAMS - 2025

Buckeye Roadshow Zoom/Onsite jams have been put on hold after Shari contracted Covid on January 2 with several side issues.
She is still on the road back to being involved with music. We hope to start the jams again at the end of the summer.

BUCKEYE DULCIMER FESTIVAL ZOOM JAMS

WELCOME to zoom jams, Buckeye Dulcimer Festival style. Join Chris & Joe Steiner and Shari Wolf in jamming our favorite jam tunes from the dulcimer world, old-time music world and bluegrass world. Music in the jams will all be traditional and from public domain.
No copyrighted music.

OVERVIEW:

These are not beginner jams, BUT beginners ... anyone .... is welcome to join

We'll increase speed as we play through tunes and play singing songs at singing speed.
We'll play tunes more than just a few times.

***************************************************************

You'll be able to hear only the three of us during the jam. We will be muting you during the playing and unmuting
in between tunes for comments. We hope this will help you to continue to jam even when jamming in person is not possible.

Join our mailing list (email or snail mail): Email us and include your information.
If you have any further questions, please call Shari at 937-216-5176.
