“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Haunting Holiday Harmonies (2025)”!

Leave a reply

Hi, everyone!

For our second holiday jam session… let’s be honest, as much fun as the holiday season can be… sometimes, it’s just not. It can be frustrating. Overwhelming. Stressful. Everyone’s supposed to feel happy and celebrate the holidays in a very specific way, and if you deviate from any of these very specific standards, you can get… iced out. And some people are grumps who won’t be satisfied until everyone’s as miserable as they are. Whether you’re on the naughty list, a Scrooge or Grinch, or just frustrated things aren’t going your way right now, come vent with us on the dark side!

Jam with us to a host of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Getting into the Spirit of the Season Songs (2025)”!

Hi, everyone!

We’ve waited long enough! It’s officially after Thanksgiving and officially December, so let’s defrost another series on Jammin’ with Jamie… holiday harmonies! No matter which holiday you celebrate this time of year, if you just like winter, or if you’re hunkered down in your heated bunker until the world thaws out in… let’s be honest, May, jam with us this December for holiday harmonies, with a different theme every week!

For our first holiday jam session, if you feel like you haven’t really gotten into the season yet, now’s the perfect time! We’re putting up the decorations, walking our first crunching steps in the snow… warming up our bodies and voices by dancing and singing to these songs!

Jam with us to a snowfall of…

Hi, everyone!

For those of you who celebrate, I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving!

Whether you celebrate and are still digesting dinner or don’t celebrate, this next jam session is all about a tasty topic we can all relate to!

Take a seat at our Jammin’ with Jamie table as we serve up and jam––– culinary pun intended––– to a feast of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Super Self-Celebrating Songs (2025)”!

Leave a reply

Hi, everyone!

Before Halloween, we jammed to set of super celebration songs, celebrating our accomplishments, progress, and work toward those achievements!

Even if you haven’t achieved your goals yet, remember that it’s just that… yet. I want to expand on that. Even if we haven’t achieved our ultimate goals, we still have plenty to be proud of!

This time, instead of just celebrating what we do, we’re going to jam to a set of…

Hi, everyone!

This is Part 6 of 6 Jammin’ with Jamie jam sessions for spooky season!

For our sixth sinister jam session… for those of you keeping count at home, we’ve run out of pre-Halloween jam sessions. But I did not miscount! I always think it’s weird how we’re supposed to just stop celebrating a holiday the day after it happens. Especially transitioning from Halloween to––– ahem––– those… other… holidays… So we’re not ending when the calendar tells us to!

Once you’re done trick-or-treating, jam with us to a host of…

Hi, everyone!

This is Part 5 of 6 Jammin’ with Jamie jam sessions for spooky season!

For our fifth freaky jam session… it’s our last jam session before Halloween, so we need to make sure we’re ready! We have to put the final polish on our decorations, put finishing touches on our costumes, stretch our trick-or-treat bags to their limits, and finalize our trick-or-treating trails!

(I did not miscount! Jam with us next week for another spooky surprise!)

While we do that, let’s ring the doorbell to trick-or-treat with a host of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Macabre Monster Melodies (2025)”!

Hi, everyone!

This is Part 4 of 6 Jammin’ with Jamie jam sessions for spooky season!

For our fourth freaky jam session… we’ve summoned the supernatural, we’ve experimented with science fiction, we’ve cut a rug with slashers… but there are still some sinister citizens who haven’t jammed with us yet! They’re the ones who don’t quite fit into any of the aforementioned creepy categories. Some fit into more than one… and some are off in their own Venn diagram circle, all alone.

So let’s give these unique creatures of the night their time in the spotlight with a mix of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Devious Dungeon Dance Ditties (2025)”!

Hi, everyone!

This is Part 3 of 6 Jammin’ with Jamie jam sessions for spooky season!

For our third thrilling jam session… there are a surprising number of spooky songs that are about dancing, teach a dance, or have a specific dance associated with them. So I hope you took my advice and stretched and warmed up, because we’re going to bust a macabre move and get our ghoulish, ghostly, ghastly groove on as we jangle our bones to beats that go bump in the night!

Dive with us into a deluge of…
