Afternoon Tea And Tracks

A legendary album. A table full of treats. One seriously soulful afternoon.
It’s a brew. It’s a bop. It’s a brilliant album played in full – with cake!
Join us for delicious afternoon tea meets a no-skips listening party, hosted by someone who knows (and loves) their liner notes.
We’ll pour the tea, bring out the good stuff – scones, sandwiches and scrumptious patisseries, while you settle in for a front-to-back journey through one iconic record. No interruptions. No shuffle. Just great music, sweet bites and plenty of tasty chat along the way.
