Oxjam at Oxford Castle in August

Git’ yourselves down to the Oxford Castle Market Square from 7.00 pm until 10.00 pm on Wednesday 25 August, and you can avail yourselves of some lovely acoustic music from a set of Oxfordshire artists. (That’s music played on lovely acoustic instruments, you understand – no guarantee of lovely music being played. Ha.)

Getting themselves behind the cause (Oxjam raises money for Oxfam, who – like you didn’t know – fight poverty and suffering worldwide) are The Half Rabbits, Phantom Theory, Prohibition Smokers Club, Tiger Mendoza, Swindlestock and Kt&Ky. That right there is an interesting and eclectic mix. As well as the music there’ll be a raffle (who doesn’t love a raffle?) and what are cryptically referred to by Oxjam as ‘special promotions’. It’s almost worth going down there just to find out what a ‘special promotion’ is.

It’s all free, but you’re obviously encouraged to donate. That’s how it works, see – you hear good music, have a fun evening, and contribute to a good cause. A win-win, as they say. Read more about it on Oxfam’s website.

    The gig is still going ahead tonight but due to the wet weather forecast for tonight we’ve had to move it to the O3 gallery which is to the right of the market square. This also means that space will be limited so get there early!
