read moreFriday Night Jazz at Stray’s is a laid back but full-on jazz event. Doors open at 7:30pm, with music from 8:00pm. Tickets are available to buy in advance only.
Our Friday Night Menu is available from 7:30pm, plus we have a nice range of bottled wines, beers, Prosecco, soft drinks and our new range alcohol-free beers, ales and ciders from Drynks Unlimited. And of course, not forgetting our namesake, great coffee!
Tickets are sold via this website or you can buy from the relevant shop. Seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis – if you wish to reserve specific seats, we will do our best to accommodate this, but recommend you get in early to secure your favourite spot! We don’t send out tickets, so we recommend adding the date to your calendar once you’ve booked!
HOW IT WORKS…
STAMFORD JAZZ takes place at The Corn Exchange Theatre Lounge on Broad Street in Stamford.
Now don’t mistake us for one of those pretentious jazz venues – we want you to enjoy your night!
However, we do ask you to respect other members of the audience and if it looks like they’re having difficulty hearing the music over your frivolity, please adjust your volume accordingly. We’ve spent the best part of 2 years having restrictions imposed, so we’re as relaxed about pretty much everything as we can be.
And our license openly states that we’re not allowed to ‘promote’ dancing in the aisles, but we can’t stop you, if you deem it appropriate!
P.R.S. is Simon Potts (drums), Steve Rodda (guitar) and Stray’s own Mat Short (bass). Mat & Steve originally played on Sundays at the Newark store as part of a guitar trio. Mat met Si as part of playing with the superb Groove Merchants, led by our good friend departed, guitarist Chris Green.
Si Potts joined Mat & Steve for a date back in 2017 and the three of them haven’t looked back!
P.R.S. gig every Friday at Stray’s, supporting the headline acts at each venue, but you can see them as a trio at various venues across the Midlands, including regular slots at The Pelican in Nottingham, The Bees Knees in Laneham and with various artists at the Mason’s Arms in Louth, to name a few.
