Get ready for a foot-stompin’ Sunday as Moonshine Malarkey roll in with their irresistible blend of ol’-time swing, blues, calypso and folk.
This merry four-piece — led by a rich, barrel-aged voice — spin sweet melodies and mischievous tales that’ll have you grinning, swaying and probably dancing before you know it.
Expect high-energy rhythms, playful storytelling and a warm, whisky-soaked vibe that turns the whole room into a party.
Come join the malarkey.
Strings tight 5.30pm 🎶🎶🎤🎸
THEN….and there’s more… stay with us for our Jazz Rapport Jam, led by local pianist and legend Andy Nowak from 8pm.
Expect classic tunes, lively improvisation and a warm, welcoming atmosphere where seasoned players and first-time jammers are equally at home.
Bring your instrument, raise your voice, or simply soak up the sound—this is jazz at its most vibrant, social and spontaneous - and the only jam held on-stage!
