After several months of trying out staging a bi-weekly Sunday jam, it appears that longstanding hosts of the event at The Edge Lounge in Pickering are now back in the saddle every week.
It’s been four-and-a-half years now since, as we reported at the time, the Juggernaut Rock/Blues group moved its popular destination weekly 6-10 gathering of local bands and solo players over to the room at 877 Bayly Street.
The COVID-19 pandemic protocols put a kibosh on shows for several months this year, of course, but Durham Region was among the first that were cleared to resume live music and since the resurrection several weeks ago, the jam has appeared to be happening every week.
There’s a full backline I’m told, plus superior audio equipment and a showcase stage, as well as the versatile house band fronted by bassist and singer Andy Narsingh available to enhance jammers’ performances.
All of this is good news not only for the Durham and east TO/Scarborough players who regularly congregate at the shows but also for those across the GTA whose regions are still subject to harsher restrictions due to the pandemic.
P.S. For those east GTA residents with more sensitive ears, there’s also a new 6-9 acoustic jam happening every Sunday at St. Louis wings emporium in Oshawa at 580 King St. West.
