Join us for our monthly jam/open-mic!
Dance, sing, do palmas (clap to the music), socialize!
A juerga is a flamenco party where we can practice improvising and interacting through this Andalusian art form.
Anyone interested in flamenco is welcome. From complete novices who are just curious what flamenco is, to professionals, it's a space where we can gather to make flamenco happen.
You can quietly clap along to the music or dance a patada (an improvised flamenco dancce), share a flamenco piece you’ve been practicing, or just cheer on those making the music and dance with an ¡olé!
A juerga depends on the participants - it's about spontaneous inspiration and interaction.
Call for performing artists:
We’re looking for emerging performing artists to pair with flamenco dancers or musicians.
Starting in September, we will kick-off each juerga with an informal performance that builds bridges between flamenco and another genre.
If you're interested in being paired with a flamenco artist to create a short piece, fill out the form below. Artists will need to rehearse for a few to a several hours (depending on their creation) and be able to perform the 3rd Sunday of the month. Rehearsal space can be provided if necessary. This is a paid opportunity.
Stay for the after-party!
B-Side Lounge will have a Latin DJ following the juerga, so stick around and practice your moves in flamenco’s related music and dance forms!
