Seriously, im asking you music geniuses, what exactly makes a band a jam band?
It's all personal opinion. No one's going to be able to give you a list that every jam band has to follow.
Youre right. This is what i found for the definition of jam band: Jam bands are musical groups whose albums and live performances relate to a fan culture that originated with the 1960s group Grateful Dead and continued in the 1990s with Phish.
Jam bands are musical groups whose albums and live performances relate to a fan culture that originated with the 1960s group Grateful Dead and continued in the 1990s with bands like Phish.[1] The performances of these bands often feature extended musical improvisation ("jams") over rhythmic grooves and chord patterns and long sets of music that cross genre boundaries.[2]
While the seminal group Grateful Dead were originally categorized as psychedelic rock,[3] by the 1990s the term "jam band" was used for groups playing a variety of genres, including those outside of rock such as funk, progressive bluegrass, and jazz fusion. The term is also used for some groups playing blues, country music, folk music, world music, and electronic music.[2]
