This month, the Upstairs Jazz club is led by the exuberant and energetic Tomorrow's Warrior, Kyle Osborne. Their youthful, playful approach has taken them from vortex jazz club to stages at We Out Here and earned them the title of "hidden gem" at the Bath Jazz Festival.

With a focus on intricate arrangement of staple tunes within the jazz cannon, let the quartet take you down winding paths of musical exploration.

The Coastal Table is returning after the success of our last event in May.

Immerse yourself in the essence of the English coast with an elegant sparkling wine and seafood pairing experience, in collaboration with Rathfinny, one of England’s closest vineyards to the sea, where maritime influence shapes every bottle.

Guided by this unique coastal character, enjoy a curated tasting of four exquisite pairings:

• Classic Cuvée with fresh oysters

• Blanc de Blancs with salmon ceviche

• Rosé with prawns in maître d’ butter and bread

• Blanc de Noirs with seared tuna, shiitake, and Asian broth

Each pairing is thoughtfully designed to reflect the freshness, minerality, and balance inspired by Rathfinny’s proximity to the sea.

A refined and immersive journey—perfect for lovers of fine wine, exceptional seafood, and coastal elegance.

For August, we’ll be exploring 'Old World Wines vs New World Wines', 

This tasting will highlight the contrasting styles, traditions, and philosophies that shape wines from some of the world's most celebrated regions.

From centuries old winemaking heritage to modern innovation, we'll discover how geography, climate, and culture influence what's in the glass. Whether you prefer elegance and subtlety or boldness and expression, this evening offers a chance to compare, contrast, and deepen your appreciation for the diverse world of wine.

Breathwork is a powerful practice for releasing blocked energy, accessing deep emotions, and cultivating inner peace. In these sessions, Emma guides you through a range of breathwork techniques to support healing, transformation, and self-discovery.

You’ll be held in a safe, supportive space as you explore different breath styles and elemental energies, allowing awareness to expand and dormant aspects of self to awaken. Sessions invite curiosity and gentle exploration, with the breath guiding you inward.

Each session closes with a restorative Yoga Nidra to ground and integrate the experience.
