OUR TEAM MEMBER ARRESTED TODAY FOR GIVING OUT LEAFLETS! FREEDOM OF SPEECH UNDER ATTACK!

We had a fantastic time today in Watford High Street for our first @jamforfreedom , celebrating freedom and excercising right to protest under the European Convention of Human Rights. Many leaflets handed out and people dancing and smiling. Unfortunately, police forced our team member, Andy, to stop leafleting under draconian laws.

Our music and protest was also stopped after 2 hours because some people complained and were 'offended'. What precedent does this set for your children and grandchildren?

I'm still waiting to hear from Andy, I will update you when we hear back. Join us again next weekend! Freedom is here to stay! Where should we visit next?

Good evening everyone! Does anyone want to join us on Saturday in Watford? Or put on your own #jamforfreedom in your own town, city or high street? This Saturday is the great reopening so many businesses will be opening uo again!
PAID LIVE MUSIC OPPORTUNITY FOR LOVERS OF FREEDOM!
Good evening ladies and gents- I am 26 year old drummer, bassist and singer with over a decade experience of gigging, touring internationally and hosting/ organising festivals and events. I am also a street musician that pulled in 1000s of people a night and earning hundreds of Β£ nightly in London pre-lockdown. See www.instagram.com/cambelmusic for more.

I am recruiting a band to travel around the UK and play songs about freedom, peace, harmony and truth. Most of the time it will be popular covers and we can play your originals too if you like! This will be a paid opportunity as we will seek fundraising before, throughout and also donations as we play.
We will hire a bus of somesort to travel with our portable amps (I have several+ a portable drum kit) and also a banner and will organise a team of leafleters for every town to promote the cause (www.jamforfreedom.com) and also to assist the Great Re-Opening. We will also visit the re-opened businesses along the way to support them and potentially get some sofas to kip on and showers to use. This is likely a 7-day a week gig playing afternoons, mornings and evenings to get the most exposure possible, most donations and to give our nation something to smile and think about.

We have already done our first event 2 weeks ago in my hometown of Watford and it was a great success, with local media coverage and genuine public interest as well as opening the coversation. As it is considered a 'protest' we are allowed to play under the current legislation.
We will essentially move from town to town, city to city, high street to high street for a couple of weeks and potentially longer. Potentially meeting and jamming with local musicians as we go! Picking up connections memories and tips!
All tips will be split equally between the members, I even have a card machine so we can maximise donations.

REQUIREMENTS:
-Experience of playing in functions bands and a wide repetoire is important, as we will not have time to rehearse.
- Able to get by without earning a huge amount.. hopefully we will get tipped big but just a warning.
- A driving license is useful so we can take turns to drive.
- Portable equipment and instruments. This is not essential as we already have some, but it will be useful to not rent further equipment.
- Strong worth ethic and mentality as well as a cool and calm temperment. This is important as we may deal with vocal audiences that may be against us, police that could approach us and we need to show the world and our nation that we can be calm under pressure whilst putting on a fantastic show that changes lives and changes minds.

WHAT I NEED FROM YOU:
Please drop me a message or email to contact@cambelmusic.com with:
-Your name, number, email address
-Your location
-Your availability (can you be on the road next week for 2 weeks straight, what day can you start?)
-What portable equipment and instruments can you bring and play?
- What is your professional experience and repetoire?

Even if you don't fit the criteria please drop me a message so we can build our community of freedom loving, free thinking artists and hopefully jam with you on one of the stops on our tour of these beautiful lands. You deserve freedom, and our people deserve live music!

God bless and speak soon.πŸ™βœŒοΈ

WHO'S READY FOR SOME LIVE MUSIC? πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§JAM FOR FREEDOM 2021 UK TOUR starting this Saturday in London! πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

🎢Jam for Freedom is a collective of musicians defending freedom of speech and the pursuit of happiness. We represent the healing of our nation and also a peaceful rebellion against attacks on human rights such as our rights to work.

🎸Our band will tour a different high street daily across at least 21 cities and towns in the UK. Starting this Saturday, 13th of February in London.

πŸ“ΈWe will create a documentary of this tour, touching upon the effects of β€˜lockdowns’ on artists like themselves and on society at large.

✌️We will visit, interview and support local businesses. Local musicians are invited to play at the β€˜Jam For Freedom' as part of our film.

πŸš™We will be taking this tour around in a camper-van! All our equipment and amps are portable and battery-powered.
