Not The Usual Jam \/\/ Experimental Open Mic Jam The Unusual Jam is an open mic creative powder bomb, running for over 5 hours, every second Sunday of the month. Move with the music and create with talented instrumentalists, vocalists, MCs, and live producers.
These sessions are on occasion professionally filmed and audio recorded, performers have a chance to takeaway footage from the same stage as names like Khurangbin's Boiler Room set and Motherlands MixMag set.
If you're down to be inspired, you'll be treated to experimental clashes from synths, sequencers, MPCs, E-drums, midi instruments, guitars, basses, keys, acoustic drums, voices and bodies.
If you’d like to take part show up with your instrument, any questions that you may have, please send to [email protected]

Our Spice Trail Menu is predominantly plant based, with some ethically sourced meat options, as part of our conscious drive towards sustainability. Our passion is for the cooking of the Middle East and southern Mediterranean so expect punchy flavours, warm spices and as always the best ingredients we can find to comfort and nourish the soul.
With our drinks, we partner with breweries St Austell and Signature Brew for our lagers and IPAs and serve organic wine and prosecco which help international wildlife charity, Born Free. We design our spin on such drinks as Rum Punch, homemade Hackney Spiced Rum, Vegan White Russian and Espresso Martini.
GROW

Grow, Hackney is an independent and self-organised eco-system of studios and a creative space with bars and a kitchen created out of an old sausage factory by the River Lea in Hackney Wick. It is run as an experiment in ethical and sustainable business and works in partnership with local artists, musicians, DJ's and community groups. Most events are free, from live jazz and blues, open deck reggae, open mic and art and film festivals. Grow pays London Living Wage, uses eco-electricty and sources ethical and locally wherever possible. Grow exists for music, art, food, conversation, community and belonging. Everyone is welcome.
