About this event

Double Dole Stringband's hosting a monthly old-time jam at The Retreat Hotel, kicking off 6:30pm on the last Sunday of each month. It's built on the beginner-friendly sessions they run at Cafe Gummo, but this one leans into faster breakdowns and trickier tunes — though everyone's welcome regardless of what they can play. Bring an acoustic instrument, bring mates, bring family. No formal teaching, but plenty of peer-learning as you go.
