Hello JAKE readers!

Welcome to summer! With much of our student population gone, it's important that we continue to support the scene and pull up to local shows! 

JAKE shall prevail, and we hope to continue encouraging you to go to shows and be an active part of your local scene.

Have Any Ideas for JAKE?

JAKE is a volunteer organization aimed to help the growth of the local music scene without the use of social media. If you have any ideas or want to get involved please send us an email and we would be happy to collaborate. We cannot do JAKE without you, the reader. Thank you for your support and let's continue to make JAKE the best newsletter it can be.

Also, have any flyers that you'd like to see on the newsletter? Send them our way and you'll be sure to see them on next week's edition!

This playlist comes from a blended playlist combined with Alex from Loophole (we love Loophole). I love these joint playlists, if anyone wants to expand their music taste, send in a blend request!

 

Weekly Joke!!

Did you hear about the new brand of corduroy pillows?

They're making headlines! :D

 

Animal Spotlight!

Tapir time! Closely related to the rhinoceros, these fantastical creatures are out of this world. Look at their pretty little snouts! OH boy! Do I love tapirs? The answer is yes of course. Click above to learn more about these tapir-ific creatures!

 

WHY J.A.K.E.???? 

In an ever-evolving age of “new,” smartphones and social media dependency have been on the rise. Social media’s original intention was to connect us but has ultimately separated us further from each other. This newsletter comes to you to lessen your dependency on this isolating technology. We aim to move away from these vices and support those choosing to use the “dumb phone.” Using email rather than social media, this newsletter will supply information on events as well as updates on the music scene within SLO. Without social media, you risk missing out on real social events, but this newsletter will allow you to skip the FOMO and stay in the loop of everything going on in the central coast scene.

This newsletter will update you about shows, gigs, concerts and other events. It will also feature concert reviews, artist spotlights, weekly playlists, and more.
