ANN ARBOR, Mich. – A new web series and platform composed in Ann Arbor is connecting southeast Michigan musicians to new audiences.
Hosted by Tree Town’s Nadim Azzam, Whip Jams is part jam session, part personal interview.
Shot from inside Azzam’s car as he drives around different Michigan cities, each episode focuses on a musical guest who performs and shares their thoughts on making music, turning points in life and their own origin stories.
