Steve Morphew and Dave Thomas return next Thursday (20th) for the 2nd installment of the Blues Club live in the Artichoke garden. 🎸

The first one was really special. Come and catch these heroes wailing some proper blues music, with a lineup of fantastic musicians, this time also featuring legendary saxophonist Phil Marshall! 🎷

They'll also be here on 17th September if you can't make it next Thursday...

Back at The Artichoke next week for our ‘Bring Your Own’ vinyl session, where you can bring along your favourite records to share with fellow music fans.

This month’s theme is ‘Secret Loves’ and is an opportunity to share what some might call your musical ‘guilty pleasures’ (but we don’t be really believe we should feel guilty about such things). Whether it is those songs that might not pass the ‘cool’ test (but that you secretly love) or perhaps there’s that one song by a band you wouldn’t normally mention in company, we want to hear them!

We’ll do our best to get through as many of everyone’s requests as possible, and if you would like to say a few words about your choices on the night that would be great. If you’d prefer to just sit back and enjoy hearing some excellent music, that’s fine too.

🗓 Monday 17 August, 7-9pm
📍The Artichoke, 1 Magdalen Rd

Free to attend and all welcome.

🍻🐀BIG NORTHERN PINTS🐀🍻

are certainly no strangers to our taps so we thought it would be a nice idea to load the cellar up for your enjoyment over this year's NR3 Beer Mile!

We'll have a lovely selection available across keg and cask from the get-go with more dropping here and there over the week as you put 'em away.

We will also have the modern classic NITRO White Rat (big hoppy creamers!) available for the duration of the event.

starts TOMORROW!
