April is Jazz Appreciation Month and The Side Door has teamed up with the Hartford Jazz Society for a very special jam session where musicians are welcome to sit in on the bandstand to “cut their teeth” following a houseband set by Hartford’s own Alvin Carter and Confluence of Influence!

Join us for a very special night of music on camaraderie with another installment of our popular Side Door Jam Sessions!

The house band features:

Haneef Nelson – trumpet

Musicians are welcome to bring their instruments (house bass, amps, drum kit, and piano provided) and sit in after the house band set!

Participating musicians are FREE!
All others are $10 minimum suggested donation at the door.
