Jammin Java

Awesome show! Sad that there wasn’t a huge crowd. Music fans really missed out! Even with a smaller crowd Iron Roses brought all the energy, closing the show singing and dancing on the floor with the crowd. Can’t wait till they return to Northern Virginia!

Wonderful evening at Jammin Java for Rains Draper, Pictrola, and headliner Chatham Rabbits. The venue was awesome....Union Pizza never disappoints. The lineup was perfect...DC-based singer/songwriter Rains Draper and local bluegrass band kicked off the evening with two sets of outstanding music, warming up the crowd for the main attraction, Chatham Rabbits. Sarah and Austin McCombie took the stage just before 9pm and nailed it! The NC-based duo gave a rousing performance, performing 14 songs from their repertoire, including a few from their upcoming album. Both Sarah and Austin are outstanding vocalists and instrumentalists and did not disappoint. Mix in some humorous banter as well as the back story of some of the songs and the night was a hit...we'll be back!

The venue: spacious yet small enough to get to know the band. Delicious food, well-stocked bar. The performers: tremendously talented, friendly, and just amazing in person. The event: really cool! You could tell that all three acts are a pretty tight-knit unit, and they love to get audience participation, even going into the audience! If you're on the dance floor and really grooving, there's a great chance you may even end up in one of their music videos after the tour!

Everything was amazing!! Jhariah was an amazing performer and somehow managed to make the concert both high-energy and sincere and funny in a way that I wasn't expecting but LOVED. Jammin Java was a great venue and I wish I could go to the concert all over again

Atomic Tom has lost nothing during their minute or two of a hiatus. Same energy, same great vocals and crowd-engaging fun. With new music on the way, there is hope that this small run of shows will lead to many more.

I was thrilled to find out Vonda would be playing Jammin' Java! This is my favorite small venue - easy to get to, free parking, reasonably priced food and drinks, no bad seat in the house, great acoustics, and friendly servers (and all ages!). I last saw Vonda during her Ally McBeal fame, in a much larger venue, around 1999. I have followed her music since and always enjoy her recorded work. She is a fantastic live performer, with a super talented band. It was a great show. If you have a chance to see Vonda live, you should definitely go!

Sarah and Austin brought their A game last night! Great set…these guys are ready to break out! I’m glad they played the Java, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they soon get opportunity to play much bigger gigs and we end up having to see them down the road and a bit larger Vienna venue 😃!

It was the most amazing night of my life!!! I had gotten the VIP MEET AND GREET so I was able to meet them and take a photo of them which I loved every second!!! Plus they had a Q&A with the group of vips so awesome!! When they played, they were just killing it!! I knew almost every word to their covers!! I hope they come back to Virginia soon!!

Great show. I don’t follow the group through social media (except for watching their videos on YouTube), so I didn’t realize there would be two warmup acts. All of the artists were excellent with great energy and enthusiasm. I highly recommend you check them out b/c it’s not common to see artists this good while they are still touring small venues. Keep in mind, these are cover bands, but if you enjoy the songs they are covering, you won’t be disappointed. In addition, they have great stage presence despite this being one of their first tours. I hope they do well, get the right support from fans, family, etc. and keep going.

Awesome show! Amazing artist. It’s the 5th time I’ve seen Greyson in concert and he never disappoints. He played all his new songs and some of his older songs from Portraits and Trophies. If you get the opportunity to see him live, GO!! I hope he never stops making music :)

Mr. Steve Forbert he’s like a fine wine, he just keeps getting better with time, love that guy, thank you Steve my life be a stairway to Heaven. And peace be with you and your family Sir, May God bless you Sincerely Dr. Auby J

We had a wonderful time hearing Sean Hayes and band in Vienna. All of the musicians were excellent and it was a really fun show with music that made you want to laugh, cry and dance. If they come to your town don't miss them!

Five star show. I was sitting in the front row looking up at him the entire time. First time I’ve seen him, but I’ve been a fan of his music for many many years. He did not disappoint. And he was lovely after the show. One of my true singer/ songwriter heroes.

Cory is hands down the most talented songwriter and performing working today. I have seen him 6 times over the past 8 years. I would have seen him 10 more during that time if I could've made it happen. Above all Cory is a tremendous performer and a class act - a true southern gentleman. Incredibly polite when you meet him post show. Go see Cory Branan. You won't regret it.

Jesse is a talented singer-songwriter with great comedic timing and genuine love in his heart. In a world where negativity seems to be ubiquitous, it is refreshing to be in his air space. I first saw him open for Liz Longley and gladly bought tickets to his solo show when he returned to the venue. Glad I did!

This was a very good show. These are wonderful musicians. I had a great time. I will go every time they are in the area. I saw them at the 9:30 club. Also a great show. I bought their new “stripped”. Very Happy. Thanks for coming.

John was in good form, played many favorites and had a good report with the crowd. Jamming Java was a good venue for Craigie’s acoustic set. And, he broke a string like a real rockstar! Dan Parsons was in good voice and fixed the string.

Great one-man show. He did the sampling show that was raved about in guitar magazine that he created for Joe Bonamassa s keeping the blues alive cruise. I love the mid day show, but it was a small turnout. I hope he does more there. Love that venue.

So great to see Matt and his band perform in the area again in just a few months! Well worth taking off work at lunchtime and driving 4 hours to NoVA for the show! What a great surprise to get so many songs from past albums, and the quaint venue made for a wonderfully intimate concert experience!

Yet another amazing show from Liz Longley. She has so much talent and spirit that every minute is a special moment. She not only moves you, she makes you laugh, cry, think, and just feel like a friend. Liz is one of kind.
