Wednesday Acoustic Jam Session

Beginning on October 2, 2024, the PRMR Wednesday acoustic jam session will be moving to The Veteran’s Memorial Club at 2005 Valley Avenue here in Baker City. It’s the same premise as always, just at a new location.

Musicians of all skill levels are invited to join in our jam circle and share music with everyone. Our musicians are very supportive of one another and always enjoy welcoming new people to the circle.

Powder River Music Revue will always be grateful to John & Twila (we miss you Twila!) for allowing us the space for 18 wonderful months of the Wednesday acoustic jam at The Ison House Bed and Brew.

The concept is pretty straight-forward: we move around the circle with each musician offering up a song for everyone to join in playing along with. The person bringing the song can share the key it is in or the chords; whatever will help other musicians to feel like they can join in. Often there are several songs that only one or two musicians know, however, the others involved are usually quick to pick up on things. Vocalists are also encouraged to join the circle.

As an “acoustic” jam session, we like to keep things a bit more mellow, so drums are often too overpowering. Smaller percussion instruments are welcome and encouraged.

Saturday, April 5, 2025, 7-10 p.m. "The Beatles Dance Party," a PRMR "Fun" raiser event. Veterans Memorial Club, 2005 Valley Avenue, Baker City, OR"-Open Jam Session

Powder River Music Revue is pleased to bring our first non-summer event to Baker City on April 5, 2025.

Please join us for The Beatles Dance Party, an “fun” raising event for Powder River Music Revue. The event will be held at the Veterans Memorial Club, 2005 Valley Avenue, Baker City, OR from 7-10 p.m. Admission is FREE with a suggested donation of $5 per person. Your $5 donation will get you a ticket for our door prize drawings throughout the evening. We will have a selection of Beatle-themed prizes for our drawings and contest winners. There will be a costume contest, a dance contest, and other little games throughout the night, all of which will earn the winners one of our fun prizes. We will also be selling raffle tickets for $5 each or 5/$30 for other prizes as well. PRMR memberships will also be available (see the Membership page for more information).

This is simply an event to get together, celebrate the upcoming summer, and have some fun while listening to some of the greatest music ever produced all while supporting Powder River Music Revue’s goal of continuing to bring free music and events to Baker County. Let your hair down and dig out those tie-dyed shirts, peace signs, and rose-colored granny glasses and join in the fun.
