Summer in the Squares: The Baltimore Pop-Up Jazz Jam

Summer in the Squares 2025 Presents: The Baltimore Pop-Up Jazz Jam

The Baltimore Pop-Up Jazz Jam was founded by bassist Ed Hrybyk in September 2020 in response to Covid-19 restrictions. The closing of bars and venues left a massive gap for the music community, especially students. Occurring at a different location each week, the jam provided a safe opportunity for musicians of all levels to play together for a socially-distant audience.

The Baltimore Pop-Up Jazz Jam continues in 2025 for the 6th consecutive year. Open to all, community jam sessions are integral to the education and career development of student musicians, providing an opportunity for learning and applying new techniques. These inclusive sessions provide valuable connections and allow emerging musicians to network with paid professional artists. “The Baltimore Pop-Up Jazz Jam” offers City residents an unexpected, socially-distant, live music experience every Thursday evening.

Since its inception, The Baltimore Pop-Up Jazz Jam has been held in over 40 different Baltimore City parks or green spaces. Follow @edhrybyk on Instagram or Facebook to find out the next location. Visit www.edhrybyk.com for more information.
