Community Drum Jam

Feel the Beat: Community Drum Jam Brings Unity Through Rhythm at City Walk BHAM
Over two decades ago, musician and facilitator, John Scalici, made a bold decision—to step away from touring with bands and instead channel their energy into something far more personal and impactful: community rhythm. What began as a desire to escape the grind of the music industry evolved into a passion for bringing people together through the power of drumming.
“I wanted the focus to be on empowerment, inclusion, motivation, and inspiration through rhythm,” he explained. And that’s exactly what the Community Drum Jam at City Walk BHAM has become—a place where rhythm serves as a universal language that transcends barriers.
A Jam for Everyone
The Community Drum Jam (CDJ) is exactly what the name suggests—a communal, interactive drumming experience open to all. It’s not a performance or a class, but a shared moment where people from every background, age group, and ability level gather to connect on a basic human level through rhythm.
“Rhythm is a UNIVERSAL language,” he emphasizes. “Once you know where the ‘pulse’ is, you can interact with it and the other people in the circle.”
From gently guiding participants to shifting grooves to keep things fresh, the facilitator works behind the scenes to ensure each session flows smoothly—even though it may “look” easy.
Rooted in Birmingham
Although John has led drumming events around the city for over 20 years, the Community Drum Jam at City Walk BHAM has been thriving for the past two. Originally attempted as a year-round event, the jam now takes place seasonally—spring through fall—with a particularly magical December session held beside the Christmas tree.
No Experience Necessary
Whether you’ve never touched a drum or you’ve been playing for years, all are welcome to join. The sessions are entirely free, and John brings at least 20 drums for anyone to try out. People are encouraged to bring their own instruments if they have them, but it’s not a requirement.
Special attention is given to young children, who are invited to explore softer instruments in the center of the circle with the support of a parent. It’s a safe, joyful space to simply “hit things” and begin developing a love for rhythm.
A Creative, Healing Space
More than just music, the drum jam is a form of expression and even healing for many. Participants include dancers, hoopers, painters, writers, and more—all drawn to the rhythm in their own unique way.
“People come for different reasons,” the facilitator shares. “For many, this is a healing experience—a release of emotion, a chance to connect and be accepted.”
Whether someone is battling illness, navigating personal struggles, or just looking for a creative outlet, the drum circle offers support, connection, and joy.
