Event information

Gappy's final standard show of the year brings together a trio of excellent songwriters who are a bit indie, a bit country, and a bit blues.

Barton Hartshorn has recently moved to Oxford from Paris, and his new trio is a Supergrass-meets-Costello treat.

London's Alan Caruso brings a laidback indie vibe to classy songs.

The Scott Gordon Band are Oxford's long-standing heroes of slide-blues grooves.

DON'T BE AN ARSE
Our gigs are often highly eclectic, so there might be a wide variety of punters in our little venue. We want everyone to have a good time, so relax, express yourself and have a good gig, but be thoughtful of other people and don't ruin their night with your fun. Basically, just be considerate and nice, and everyone will be happy.

Naturally, anyone who is actively aggressive, or who abuses anyone else on the grounds of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, Monster Munch flavour preference, or whatever the hell else might make a bigot irrationally angry, is out the door.

WE'LL DO OUR BEST TOO
In return, we'll make every effort to create a warm and pleasant environment, and we'll try our hardest to keep to the timetable (music starts at approximately 20.20, and will go on till about 22.35). Also, we've kept the door price as low as we can, but rest assured that GTI is a non-profit event, and all the money after expenses goes to the performers.

ACCESSIBILITY NOTE
Our venue is a smallish, relatively simple room, but it is at ground level, and so should be accessible to most people (although there is no accessible toilet). We will also have some chairs available if standing for the duration might be a challenge. We are also able to admit under-18s, though anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

There is no dedicated parking at the venue.
