Los Gatos Invitational Jam Will Raise Money For Jambot Creator Tom Lucas On September 4

Tom Lucas created and now maintains a software program that organizes invitational bluegrass jams around the Bay Area. The “Jambot” creates opportunities for outstanding individual musicians to play together in front of audiences at taco places, coffee places, hotdog places, and adult beverage places in the South Bay, East Bay, San Francisco, Marin, Half Moon Bay, and beyond.

The inventor and community creator has not been compensated for his ongoing expenses and efforts.

On Thursday, September 4 a fundraiser will be held to give much-needed funds to Tom. The Bay Area bluegrass community will come together to support this excellent piece of bluegrass infrastructure.

7:00pm, September 4 — Los Gatos Coffee Roasting Company, 101 West Main Street, Los Gatos. Free admission, reservations also available. Donations for Tom gladly accepted. Be there!
