If you like a bit of acoustic strumming rather than electric blaring (and who doesn’t ?) then check out The Harrison on Sunday evening (30th Sept) from about 7:30. Hopefully five acts playing Blues, Folk Rock and Country. The big bonus is that there are no drums, which is a blessing for a small venue. I haven’t been to this one before – but the pub looks good in the pics (not at all what you would expect from the outside) gets a good write up here and the Uphill Acoustic Sessions web page here is promising . Worth a look and always good to support local live music. The Harrison is on the right as you head down Grays Inn Road (map). Thanks to Hazel for the tip in Facebook at the I Love Kings Cross group.

The Harrison is nice gastro pub – quite hidden away on Harrison St. Used to pass it on my way to work, but haven’t been there for a while, though. They have a website with directions etc http://www.harrisonbar.co.uk
