Jadegames Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Hi all, Was searching to buy an upright bass and thankfully found this forum. I've been playing bass for 20+ years in mostly funk indie bands but want to start playing jazz (also want to learn how to better ready music!) I'm hoping in 6-ish months I'll be able to sight read any good sounding jazz standard and be in a jazz band playing in Manchester 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nekomatic Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Welcome! I believe the jazz workshop class at Band on the Wall is highly thought of, if you're interested in that sort of format: https://bandonthewall.org/events/jazz-workshop-2023-4/ There are one or two jazz jam sessions around town as well. I keep meaning to get along to one of them one of these days… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
