A song circle is a friendly jam session on acoustic instruments only. Hand drums are okay. Songs can include originals or favorite covers. We'll take turns around the circle. If it's your turn, you can do your song solo or you may request accompaniment. You may invite the whole group to join in, or you may invite specific individuals (you may have worked out an arrangement). The important thing is that you choose how to put your music across.
