HOME | EVENTS | MENU | ABOUT | ART | FAQ | Live house (ライブハウス) is a small live music club concept which originated in Japan. The term is a Japanese coinage (wasei eigo) and is mainly used in China, Japan and South Korea. It most frequently refers to smaller venues, which may double as restaurants or bars, especially featuring rock, jazz, blues, and folk music. American livehouse - an East Asian concept, tailored to the tastes of a discerning western audience. A new incarnation for a venerable Philadelphia night spot. Jamey's House of Music is a multi-award winning, superbly crafted intimate 60 seat venue for live music set in a comfortable, air conditioned, world class listening room, with a taproom and full-service restaurant. JHOM boasts sound, lighting, video and musical equipment worth over a quarter million dollars - second to none in a venue this size! Take a look here to read about our recent upgrades and renovations, including the extensive mitigation measures to keep you safe while you enjoy your night out. Our stunning sound and intimate layout means guests will enjoy live performance in a whole new way. The space in the main room has stage-facing cushioned seating for 32 at long tables and 2-tops, a comfy "producer's" couch for 3, with a stage-side dining/listening "Little Gallery" with a video monitor focused on the stage, with cushioned seating for an additional 24. The gallery features a monthly rolling exhibit of music related paintings and photography produced by fine artists or musicians who are also artists. The bar area has seating for an additional 9, and another video monitor. We have been called "the best small venue on the east coast", "a listening room on steroids" and "a music lover's paradise." Utilizing a separate ticketing structure, we pay-per-view live stream all our shows in professional quality full HD stereo so performances may be watched remotely as they happen as well. This unique capability gives artists a world-wide reach for fans and audiences that are unable to attend in person. Audio is professionally multi-track recorded which gives artists the option of releasing live show material. These "value-added" services place Jamey's head and shoulders above all but the rarest high end clubs. JHOM serves a modestly priced, freshly prepared Asian inspired American menu, sinful desserts, and fresh brewed coffees and espressos made with quintuple filtered water. We also boast a dozen ice-cold, fresh brewed, fine beers on tap from Conshohocken Brewing Company, and Pennsylvania wines, spirits and hard cider. As an iconic venue by, and for musicians, we know how to treat professional performing artists with the respect and TLC that they so richly deserve. We are ASCAP, BMI and SESAC licensed. We typically showcase blues, jazz, folk (singer/songwriter), light rock, and occasionally world music genres. We support original music almost exclusively. We feature ticketed concerts on Friday and Saturday evenings, an alternating Thursday Night Jazz Jam or Open-Mic Night and a free admission Sunday Blues Brunch & Jam hosted by the superb Girke-Davis Project or the Philly Blues Kings.
