What It Is
The Student Jam is a way for students to take what they’ve learned in lessons and apply it in the real world. You learn your respective part to a song and then get on stage and perform it! This happens on the fly without a group rehearsal (hence it’s a “jam”). The shows always take place at professional venues where touring bands play regularly. Student Jams are free to anyone taking lessons at the Foundry.
During the height of COVID we held the jam virtually in our recording studio Blast House Studios. You can check out those videos here.
Student Jam – Sunday, May 3, 11am-4pm at the High Noon Saloon

As you may know, 2026 marks the Foundry’s twentieth anniversary! So, we’re going to celebrate that in all three Student Jams this year, starting with ’20 Years of Madison Music Foundry – Student Jam Greatest Hits.’ We looked at Student Jams from years gone by and selected songs that had the highest student participation.
