Ky Wildermuth, 22, of Edgewater

When I go downtown with my guitar, it’s impossible to not meet new people. I’ve met a lot of crazy characters while playing downtown — plenty of funny drunk people, but other musicians too.
    Jamming with other people around the Annapolis area and playing in the streets downtown has opened my mind to new styles and built my confidence as a musician. It’s an environment that always sparks ideas for new songs. I’ve come up with a bunch of interesting melodies while jamming downtown that I think reflect the culture and vibe of Annapolis.
    It’s always a good time.
