Boomjam

If you’ve been to shows around town the past few months, there’s a decent chance you’ve run into Tucker Miller passing out handbills for the inaugural Boomjam. Miller has been bouncing around the Northwest for a while working at various festivals in order to learn enough to put on a fest of his own in hopes of bolstering Spokane’s always tricky all-ages music scene. The primary edition takes place in a Logan Neighborhood parking lot across the street from Gonzaga and features a host of up-and-coming alternative rock touring acts like Ill Peach, Puck, and Forty Feet Tall; local favs like Hayes Noble, Vika, and Mamma Llama; plus food trucks, art vendors, a “disco living room” and more. If business is indeed booming, then we might have more Boomjams to look forward to in the future.
