Ain’t no jam like a Legendary Pro Jam! 🎸🔥 Ain’t no jam like a Legendary Pro Jam! 🎸🔥 ✨Nothing beats the magic of these unforgettable jam sessions! As our cruisers say: 🎶"These artists love and support each other, and they are just out and about with each other and the cruisers all week. It's the key to why this cruise is so great." 🎶 "Ronnie Baker Brooks' Pro Jam with KWS, Coco Montoya, Colin James, and RBB—only on the LRBC could you witness that! It was an emotional event. 😊" 🎶 "Ronnie is amazing at running the Pro Jam! Victor, Mr. Sipp, and Danielle also bring incredible combinations to the stage." 🎶 "Bernard Allison, Kenny Wayne, Ronnie Baker Brooks and Wayne Baker Brooks jammin. Mind blowing!"
