GIG GUIDE

We welcome impromptu jam sessions at any time but local musicians usually congregate around Sunday tea-time and play until the General Knowledge Quiz starts at 9pm.

The legendary Music Quiz takes place once a month on the second Wednesday of the month.

The following bands, some local, some national, often touring, are currently scheduled to appear at 8.30pm on Fridays. Look out for others in between!
