So what exactly is a jam session?

A jam session is music without a script. Musicians who often meet for the very first time join in one after another – someone lays down a groove, the others pick it up, and out of that moment grows a night that will never happen quite the same way again.

Here, the stage is open to everyone: PA, drums and backline are all set up – you just bring your instrument, or simply a good pair of ears. Listening, nodding along and taking it all in over a drink is at least half the fun.

  1. 01Come by.With an instrument, with your voice – or simply as the audience.
  2. 02Jump in.Check in with the host, the backline is ready to go.
  3. 03Play.Join in when it feels right – the rest takes care of itself.

“Bring an instrument, and you play. If you'd rather just sing, sing along.”

Live music in the First District

Concerts in Vienna – right in the heart of the city.

Looking for concerts in Vienna, you usually end up in big halls or pricey clubs. With us it's different: a small stage, honest sound and artists from all over the world – from jazz to soul, Latin and funk. Add DJ nights on vinyl and stand-up comedy, when the stage belongs to the spoken word.

The dates change from week to week – sometimes midweek, sometimes on the weekend. The current programme is on this page, and if you want a guaranteed seat with a view of the stage, book online. Two minutes from the U2/U4 Schottenring, kitchen until 22:00, cocktails until midnight: the live music bar in Vienna's city center.

Good to know
