SUMMARY:Gram Jam VI: A Tribute to Gram Parsons to Benefit the Jeremy Wilso
 n Foundation
LOCATION:The Showdown\, 1195 SE Powell Blvd\, Portland\, OR
DESCRIPTION:Gram Jam is a celebration of the music of Gram Parsons. A semi
 nal figure at the roots of what is now referred to as Americana. A mix of 
 traditional country\, rock n roll\, blues and soul. Gram called that mix C
 osmic American Music. Gram Parson’s efforts with The International Subma
 rine Band\, The Byrds\, The Flying Burrito Brothers and his two solo album
 s\, GP and Grievous Angel were not commercial successes but his songs and 
 style influenced all that came after. The Eagles\, Little Feat\, Workingma
 n’s Dead by the Grateful Dead\, The New Riders of The Purple Sage\, Lind
 a Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris are just a short list. Cosmic American Music
  is still alive and well in Portland and many other places around the worl
 d.\nShorty and The Mustangs have organized five Gram Jam benefit concerts 
 for the Jeremy Wilson Foundation https://www.thejwf.or since 2016. So why 
 do a sixth now?\nIn November\, Gram Parsons would be turning 80 within two
  days of Gram Jam VI and will also be inducted into The Rock n Roll Hall o
 f Fame within a few weeks of the show. In addition\, Shorty and The Mustan
 gs are celebrating their 30 th Anniversary in 2026. Too many dates have al
 igned. It’s meant to happen.\nA stellar list of local musicians are dona
 ting their time and talent to this benefit show. Get your tickets\, you do
 n’t want to miss this!\n\nhttps://www.showdownpdx.com/tm-event/gram-jam-
