The Ascension Music Jam will be held inside the newly renovated and air-conditioned 4-H Building at Lamar-Dixon. There will be plenty of room for dancing, and for socializing with your friends! It’s also a great way to make new friends! Tables and chairs will be provided, and food and drinks, including adult beverages will be available for sale.

This is a day to get out, relax, and have fun!

Five Bands for Five Dollars! The music begins at 2 pm, and a new band starts playing every hour and a half! If you need to leave for a little while, no problem! We’ll stamp your hand and let you back in for free! Come when you want, leave when you want!

Starting at 2:00 pm, we’ll enjoy Off the Grid – playing classic rock, we’ll start the day off with some energy to get you moving!

Then at 3:30 pm, Trent Bourgeois, an Ascension Parish native writes and performs his own country music, and plays country classics.

At 5:00 pm, Arthur Broussard and the Back Yard Band with Ascension Parish favorites for dancing.

Then at 6:30 pm, Mike Broussard and Night Train ring the sounds of horns and swamp pop gold.

Finally, at 8:00 pm, Kenny Cornett and Killin’ Time bring us home with jitterbug delights and the best of our local music.

Originally designed to be an outdoor concert and family picnic, the first Ascension Music Jam was chased indoors by inclement weather. But now that the renovations to the 4-H Building are complete, the event has been moved inside permanently and is no longer dependent on the weather!

So come on out! Pay Five Dollars to hear Five Bands! And dance the day away at the Ascension Music Jam!
