Jam Room Music Festival returns to Main Street to bring free live music to the streets of Columbia
——— OCTOBER 1 ———
The Jam Room Music Festival returns to Columbia, SC’s Main Street for the first time since 2019. This year’s festival is headlined by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Titus Andronicus, both of whom are celebrating new music releases. The festival will take place on October 1 and feature two stages, one on Main Street and one on Hampton Street in front of the Columbia Museum of Art.
“It’s great to have the Jam Room Fest back and bringing live indie music to the heart of South Carolina,” says festival Executive Director and owner of the Jam Room Recording Studio Jay Matheson. “After two years off due to the pandemic, we’ve been looking forward to bringing the festival back, and we couldn’t be more excited about this year’s lineup. It’s hard to believe we’ve been doing the festival for nearly a decade, and we’re still looking forward to growing it for years to come.”
Now in its 9th year, the Jam Room Music Festival has brought acts such as Superchunk, Blonde Redhead, Justin Townes Earle, Son Volt, Waxahatchee, and Guided by Voices to its stages.
In addition to venerable headliners CYHSY and Titus Andronicus, the festival will also host Titan to Tachyons, Shiner, Mourning [A] BLKstar, Bailey Road Band, The Explorer’s Club, and Columbia’s own local music champions Dear Blanca. In all, the festival will book up to 12 acts, with several more to be announced.
