Attention music lovers and party-goers. It’s almost time for the inaugural Jambaloo.

What’s Jambaloo, you ask? Jambaloo is a free (that’s right — free) North Texas music festival running Saturday, Feb. 1 through Saturday, Feb. 8 across four music venues. It’s more than just a concert series — it’s a way to unite the music community, support small businesses + uplift local artists. The venues participating are Ferris Wheelers and Club Dada in Dallas, Tulips in Fort Worth, and Andy’s in Denton.

Symposium

Starting the party strong, Jambaloo starts with a symposium on Saturday, Feb. 1 at Tulips. The discussion will feature a panel of Grammy Award winners, such as Bobby Sessions and Tre Negalla, and music industry experts, such as hip-hop icon Tracy Lynn Curry aka “The D.O.C.,” to discuss DFW’s rich current and future music scene.

Line up

Jambaloo will showcase 100+ local artists from a variety of genres over a week-long span. Check the full list of performances and their showtimes so you never miss a beat. Rock band The Unlikely Candidates, country band Kolton Moore & The Clever Few + indie-alternative singer MJ Lenderman are among the performers to take the stage at Fort Worth’s Tulips.
