January Highlights - part 2
Hello music lovers!
With 2025 in full swing, we’re excited to keep the January music magic alive with an incredible line up of live music to brighten your winter evenings (and afternoons!).
UPCOMING HIGHLIGHTS…
THE UKRAINIANS make their Green Note debut next week (Thurs 23rd Jan), blending traditional Ukrainian folk with Western rock for a performance full of energy and passion, and jazz guitarist HARRY DIPLOCK brings the music of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli to Green Note this Sunday (19th Jan), joined by some of the best gypsy jazz musicians from across Europe - come for an evening of improvisation and surprises! His nights are always a joy!
We’re also excited to welcome British-Congolese artist LIZ IKAMBA (Fri 31st Jan), whose music fuses inspiration from across the Diaspora - think Nina Simone, Sade and Erykah Badu with a Congolese twist! And in a special matinée performance, award-winning Canadian trio JESSICA PEARSON & THE EAST WIND (Sun 2nd Feb), will be bringing a heartfelt mix of folk, country, and Canadiana to our stage. A perfect way to spend a wintery weekend afternoon!
As you can see from our listings, many of our shows are selling out in advance, so we highly recommend grabbing your tickets early to avoid disappointment! Check out our EVENTS PAGE for the full listings.
