Open Jam with Lexi on Tuesdays

Hosted by Lexi Mangoni, this open jam fills Sweeney’s Station Saloon with collaborative sets and rotating lineups. Musicians across all genres and experience levels find a welcoming crowd, a complete backline, pro audio, and a stage built for live performance. Guitarists, drummers, singers, keyboardists, horn players, and bassists take turns on stage, and music lovers enjoy fresh songs and surprise pairings. There is no cover, with food and a full bar available. A friendly hub for Philadelphia’s live music community.
