About This Open Mic
The Night
The Community Jam at Jam in a Jar runs every Monday from 7pm to 11pm, hosted by the Alpaca Bass Trap rhythm section. It's a collaborative sit-in jam rather than a fixed-slot open mic — turn up and play with the house band. (A separate Ramshackle Collective open mic also runs at the venue on other dates.)
About Jam in a Jar
Jam in a Jar is a cosy, friendly live music and cocktail bar at 599-601 Green Lanes on the Harringay Ladder (N8 0RE), north London. A simple coffee-and-breakfast bar by day, it transforms into a music venue by night. The weekly programme centres on community jamming — 'The Community Jam' runs every Monday, hosted by the rhythm section of Alpaca Bass Trap, where musicians and creatives of all levels share tunes and lively covers — alongside 'Jamshackle!', an eclectic open mic mixing musicians, comedians and more. A genuine grassroots hub for the Harringay scene.
