Dear all. We have recently received an unprecedented amount of attention from numerous departments of Oxford City Council. Together with a campaign organised by our neighbour to encourage as many people as possible to make complaints about our operation, we have been completely overwhelmed with demands on our time. As a result, we regretfully will have to close the pub from Monday to Wednesday until further notice. We apologise for any inconvenience and hope to see many of you here from Thursday to Sunday.

Tonight (Fri 23rd). Kick off the Bank Holiday Weekend with The Knights of Mentis.

Thursday 8th! A Different Thread is a collaboration between Robert Jackson from Lichfield, England, and Alicia Best from Durham, North Carolina. Both are songwriters and multi-instrumentalists and take inspiration from the music that has crisscrossed the Atlantic Ocean over the generations, in true folk fashion. Think Beatlesque folk rock meets Gillian Welch dark country. A fresh take on an old familiar sound which led them to win first place in the open mic competition at Shrewsbury Folk Festival in 2017 and a land prime feature slot on American National Public Radio last year. Even Country legend, Steve Earle recently praised their live performance at Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival NC, where the artists shared a bill. Enjoy a new self-proclaimed genre 'British Americana', while enjoying a dish (or three) from our evening menu. Just give us a call to reserve yourselves a table. Tickets available here: https://www.wegottickets.com/event/470895 or on the door. Music 8-10:30 pm.

We're psyched to be the new home to Bossaphonik, the BEST club night in the city. This Friday Bossaphonik presents Azhaar + Global Wave (with Noreen Cullen on violin.) Azhaar established her reputation fronting and co-writing with highly regarded Brazilian jazz act Sirius B who played twice at Bossaphonik's early period in 2006. The band reached no. 1 on the Jazz FM playlist charts and Japanese Brazilian music chart and were also regulars at Camden's Jazz Cafe. After an absence spent enjoying a nomadic lifestyle travelling and touring South America, Azhaar returns to the UK with her new project Global Wave. The sound is in some ways a continuation of the fusion grooves of Sirus B but casts a wider net focusing on groovy soul-jazz with Latin and Brazilian foundations, even taking in some Arabic and African influences into the funky jazz fusion. Azhaar composed much of the music during inspiring times spent exploring jungles and surfing. Global Wave's debut LP Original Love was released in 2018 and features jazz-dance percussionist/DJ giant Snowboy on production and renowned jazz flautist Gareth Lockrane. The album has received a big thumbs-up from the jazz-dance community and has received much worldwide radio play.
