Blas Collective (regular session).

Country: Britain - Scotland. Style: "multi-genre song jam session".

Lineup: Jenn Butterworth (v/g), Hamish Napier (v/keyboard), Laura-Beth Salter (v/mandolin), Adam Sutherland (fiddle), Kevin Garrity (trombone), Steve Forman (percussion).

This song session has been going monthly since 2009 (though not always at this venue) under the name Blas Collective around a core of singers Jenn Butterworth, Laura-Beth Salter and Hamish Napier. The material ranges across folk, jazz, country, blues and some pop. During my stay in Glasgow I saw (and photographed) all of these musicians, except the trombone player, at Festival gigs (some at more than one).
