Everybody who's been to the BJBF jam sessions knows that they are the salt and pepper of the festival. Magical things are happening there...you'll see world-class musicians jamming together who you'd otherwise rarely see sharing a stage. Jams sessions are full of excitement and surprises...and they're great fun for the audience and for the musicians alike...
Here are the videos of the four evening jams that took place during the week of the 10th anniversary of the Biggest little Festival on the planet. Enjoy and share! Baru Jam (7:10) https://youtu.be/fAYuPfb09VY Mike's Jam (9:12) https://youtu.be/BV3y2ncz_hs Sabor Jam (17:08) https://youtu.be/nxrxPAnC5PU The Rock Jam (13:24) https://youtu.be/lBJsmtFvmec Check out this wonderful video showing Shakura S'Aida in a uniquely intense solo show unplugged in the intimate setting of the Boquete BCP theater...only 95 lucky visitors had the pleasure to see this show life! Now you can join them in the privacy of your home...thanks to the great work of BJBF cinematographer John Hampton. It was a magical evening, and even more so as Shakura was hardly able to speak just two days before due to a really bad sore throat she had caught on the flight to Panama....now just listen to this wonderful voice supported by Lee Oskar's great harmonica work, and be......mesmerized! BJBF cinematographer John Hampton has just released four more excellent videos of the shows on Sunday, Feb 28 at the Valle Escondido amphitheater. Click on the links below and re-live the festival!
