We're inviting you to experience the magic of our weekly Thursday Jazz Jam.
Since 2016, Stratos, our resident jazz band led by the talented and Mercury Prize-nominated Rio Kai, has held down this popular night, bringing together fans and musicians for an electrifying exploration of jazz.
Every week, Stratos dives into both the classic roots and boundary-pushing edges of jazz, creating a unique space where improvisation and connection take centre stage. With Rio Kai on bass, Dom Pusey on saxophone, Mike De Souza on guitar, and Zoe Pascal on drums, each set offers something new—a true celebration of live, evolving music.
After the first set, they open up the jam to jazz musicians who want to get involved! Contact Stratos on Instagram if you’re interested in jamming. Entry is free for jammers.
Set against the backdrop of our Hackney Wick canalside venue, this long-standing jazz night embodies both the charm of our community and the sophistication of jazz itself.
