The Jam Jamaica Leave a comment

The Jam is a weekly event currently held at the constant spring golf club in Kingston Jamaica. It has been going on for ten years or so, where professional musicians allow anyone with talent to come on stage and “Jam” with them if they feel to do so. These are photos I took of performers over the last three weeks.

The Brodies are a few awesome friends of mine from my college days. Good times partying with them as they celebrated the birthday and raged until the sun came up

The poetry society of America had a very interesting reading at the Lincoln Center. Passed thru and snapped a few shots. Was very impressed with the lineup, including National Book prize nominee Robin Coste Lewis and Maria Pontos, a 94 year old poet who closed the event.
