Our blues jam is back on Sunday 4th December with free admission to card carrying St Harmonica’s Blues Club members. Our apologies to all you jammers out there that we haven’t hosted a jam at the club since the summer but we’re back for the December Jam, last of 2022, where the house band, joined for the evening by Professor Steve Taylor on keyboards, will kick off proceedings at 7.00pm.

Under the watchful eyes of Vera and Terry Dugga,n combinations of singers and players will be assembled to perform 3-song sets for you. The results are often magnificent.

Jammers
Sign in on arrival, ideally before 7.00pm, with name and preferred instrument. We'll supply the drums, keyboard, amps, PA, and DI box for the occasional acoustic instrument. We will endeavour to swap or cover mics, if requested, but singers are welcome to bring their own.

Queensbury Jamming Rules apply:
- the singer calls the tune, decides the key, and dishes out the solos;
- players: please unpack your instrument, tune up and have everything ready before it's your turn to play;
- solos are generally 2 verses long, unless the singer decides otherwise;
- sets are 3 songs (unless we're running out of time, or your songs are 10 mins long);
- if you aren't a drummer or keyboard player, bring your own instrument. Drummers, do bring your own sticks!

Audience members are also vital to the whole proceedings, and extremely welcome!

We’ll provide the mince pies.

While we admire and support the Christmas campaigns that we see pop up in December, we also know that help is urgently needed all year round, each and every year. As some people pack away after the festive break, we are still here.

Our support is not limited to a food package, but it leaps beyond - we form connections, we listen and respond to everyone who steps through our doors. We open up a warm, safe, environment which aims to feel like a home away from home.

For us to continue to thrive and grow, and keep supporting as many people as possible, we are asking you to become a Friend of Cooking Champions. Even a donation of just £5-10 per month can make a HUGE impact on the lives of those who come through our doors.

Pop to our People's Fundraising page to donate, and we promise to keep you updated with how your support is making a difference. Thank you, we appreciate you! Team Cooking Champions
