The Third Annual Because of Black Music IAM (BOBMIAM) Game Night and Summer Jam Session Series

Hey Folks, 

Come join us next Month July 9th for the BOBMIA Game Night & Jam Session Featuring saxophonist Howard Wiley. 

Howard Wiley - “The most prodigious Bay Area saxophonist of his generation” (Berkeleyside), Howard Wiley returns with his supercharged, Hammond organ-powered band that blends jazz, gospel, and funk with next-level grooves and deep soul. Having been mentored by Bay Area great Jules Broussard and sharing formative bandstand experiences with the likes of Clark Terry, Jason Moran, Orrin Evans, and Lauryn Hill, the Berkeley-born Wiley is a shining example of innate musical talent meeting opportunity born of hard lessons well learned. Association with the Thelonious Monk Institute and GRAMMY All-American Jazz Band established Wiley as a young talent on the rise, and his work as a professional has more than made good on his prodigious beginnings. 

Bring your instrument(s) and join in the fun. 

Because of Black Music Centers Black folk, and music from the African Diaspora and Black Experience. All ethnicities, genders and generations are welcome to attend and participate in our Jam sessions.
