JAMFREE
Chance processes build complex things in the world: Things that can be
quite organized. Improvisational music can be thought of like this. JamFree
is the ongoing experimental music project of two brothers. As the core
of weekly improvisational jams, we bring in various musicians and play
without pretension or expectation. Musical styles range from jazz, blues,
and
country to experimental noise and heavy progressive rock. Mistakes do
not matter, and there are essentially no rules; just a search for spontaneous
events to emerge from what may, at times, be chaotic and messy. The valuable
moments that come out of an inspired and symbiotic coordination between
musicians make it all worth it. The implied philosophy is one of
freedom: Freedom to explore possibilities of composition and allow random
processes a turn at building something organized and special.
Most of the jams are recorded and many are freely
available for anybody with an interest in listening. JamFree has a CD
containing not only jams but rehearsed and polished songs as well. This
can be purchased. Music is not merely a product to be distributed, but
artists cannot be expected to provide their expressions without some sort
of compensation. JamFree thrives on a genuine desire to make music, and
strives to walk the line between sharing creations and attempting to fund
our passion. Money matters not, until it does.
