Jam Nice CIC

Jam Nice was formed in 2023 to facilitate participation in music as an art form, with a focus on producing events to benefit the grassroots music movement in Bristol. Jam Nice aims to create the conditions required for artists from all backgrounds to participate and thrive. Since its inception, Jam Nice has produced over 150 live events featuring local and international artists.

We leverage the skills, knowledge and resources of the team behind The Jam Jar to navigate the barriers to performing and accessing music in Bristol. Through our work we address financial obstacles and visa complications for international and local artists, and work closely with The Jam Jar to provide access to equipment and opportunities.

We believe music can be a force for good.

Jam Nice is the lead partner in this project, working in collaboration with Arts La’Olam, K.O.G, Producer Sam Jones, Africa Night Fever & Volta 45 amongst others.
