This months Jamming at the JSO features 4 great bands.

Omri Reid is a young Jacksonian who comes from a very musical family. His music is folky and reminiscent of Gypsy Jazz music with a modern twist. This will be Omri's first performance with a band.
Amateur Anthropologists hails from Detroit, and their music is very much in the tradition of Detroit style garage punk-rock. They recently performed at the Metro Times Blowout and were voted one of the best acts.
Long Whisker has members from all over: Jackson, Ypsilanti, and Japan. Fronted by Reagan Sova, an adjunct English Professor at JCC, and Jim Cherewick, this band has some folky, twang, and rock qualities around it. They're lyrics are steeped with quirkiness but are so catchy I know you'll enjoy it.

Streaking in Tongues is a rock band from Jackson. Ronnie Ferguson, of Jackson, performs with lots of feeling. They music ranges from blues, to really epic musical jams, and back down to soft ballads. They're really excited for this show!

On Thursday, March 31st, I'll be taking Long Whisker and Streaking in Tongues with to perform on MSU's student radio station The Impact. We will be guests on a show that features local music acts from around the state. The show starts at 8pm and goes until 10pm. Listen live at http://impact89fm.org/

Thank you for the continued support of local music!
