Super Vibes Jam

The World Vibes Congress is a gathering of professional players, college percussion teachers, and students whose mission is to promote the vibraphone and improvisation on all keyboard percussion instruments, including writing more music, getting more students to play, and working with teachers to develop the best methods for instruction on the instrument.

Prior to the Super Vibes Jam session at Langosta Lounge on Saturday evening, the World Vibes Congress will host seminars, clinics, and panel discussions concerning all aspects of the vibraphone at the Malletech factory in Neptune, NJ. Renowned vibraphonists Mike Mainieri and Bobby Hutcherson will be inducted into the World Vibes Congress Hall of Fame on Saturday afternoon.
