EHT Jamz at Pratt’s Hill of Beans is held every Saturday starting at 7pm. “Pratt’s” is located on 6106 Black Horse Pike, Unit B-4.  Adam Shaber and his dad Matt host EHT Jamz at Pratt’s, which is also the home of Alternative Soul. As always, you can grab good coffee and teas from around the world. EHT Jamz ends at 10pm and as the poster says, “All are welcome”.

The audience is primarily made up of people still in high school. Adam manages the Facebook page for the event night simply titled “Pratts Open Mic Night“[sic]. From the description:

“This is an Open Mic, all are welcomed to come and play music, read poetry, perform comedy, but please keep clean at the discretion of whoever is in the audience. just sign up when you get there. We have a PA system with speakers. There are 3 guitar outputs and 3 mic outputs. Please bring your OWN equipment (guitar, bass, bass amp, keyboard, etc). and try to not to use too much distortion pedals etc. It often overpowers the vocals. I have an extra guitar that you can use ONLY in the case that ur instrument breaks or you decide last minute that you want to perform. I will supply bongos and u can bring shakers. NO DRUM SET or SET PARTS, for they are too loud and overpower the vocals and instrumentals. There is no cover charge, so come if you have nothing better to do. “

Bring a friend with you and you both can get up and perform thanks to the available PA system. EHT Jamz is an overall good night for musicians and poets that allows for lots of socializing. This could very well be where the next young band forms.
