I don’t know much about the rock scene in China, but every time I check out a jam session at Jah Bar, I’m thoroughly impressed by the talent there. Those guys are playing unscripted Jazz, Funk, Blues, Classic rock etc. How were they even exposed to that stuff?
A lot of the jams at Jah Bar are comprised of a combination of professional musicians (band members), or foreigners who grew up playing instruments, etc. There are regulars who are there really often jamming, and some of them are very good. It is curious why they don’t form a band or something, when a lot of times the best live music you hear in Chengdu is an informal jam at Jah Bar.
