JAMTOWN is a musical place that's not on any map. It's a place you visit when you play live rhythm with your friends; a subtle reminder of the common bond shared by all people. And it's as accessible today as it was thousands of years ago.

| "Most that I have met convey a love for their work and a gentle approach to life. It is a big reason I do what I do. I gain critical perspective on my own culture by visiting theirs."
