The Colony
Woodstock, NY
Pro Jam was conceived in the Spring of 2010 at beautiful Club Helsinki in Hudson NY.
We enjoyed ten years and 33 epic shows in Hudson until Covid shut the doors.
We are back and stronger than ever at The Colony in Woodstock NY, a historic 1929 hotel renovated into an amazing music venue and restaurant.
Each Pro Jam features different musicians in the House Band – members have included players from Allman Brothers, Little Feat, Steely Dan, Levon Helm, Fabulous Thunderbirds, Dixie Chix and many more.
Come play, hang, eat, and enjoy. You never know who might see!

We’re Recording!
We’ve started recording our new album, “Calling Long Distance”!
This will feature 12 songs – eight all new originals, three covers done in our unique style, and one cover of our friend Stewart Maxwell’s song “Watch That Thing”, a fun double-entendre boogie.
We’re hoping to have it completed by June, depending on recording studio and musician availability. Sign up for the mailing list to get some “behind the scenes” videos of the recording sessions (and other free stuff!)

2024 Tours!
We had an incredible time in the UK this past July, late August and September. Festivals, clubs, private venues, it was all great. We’re looking forward to coming back to the UK in the fall of 2024, if not before.
We had a great December here in New York as well, including a gig at the fabled Stephen Talkhouse. Like the 100 Club in London, the list of people who performed there is just amazing.
Please stay tuned as we make new touring announcements for 2024! Plus, a brand new original album is coming…
