Weekly Wednesday night jazz and acoustic live music session at Porters Wine Bar in Hastings Old Town.
Porters Wine Bar has live music running every Wednesday night in Hastings Old Town, with sessions from 9pm to 11pm. It's a regular fixture for the bar, and the mid-week slot is just one part of what they do: they also host live music on Sunday afternoons from 4pm to 6pm.
If you're looking ahead, there are a few names already on the calendar. Jamie Smart plays on Sunday 8 November, 4pm to 6pm, and Liane Carroll takes the Wednesday slot on 11 November, starting at 8pm. Later in the month, Logan Wilson is on Sunday 29 November, 4pm to 6pm. The Wednesday nights usually lean towards jazz and acoustic sets from local talent, and the Sunday afternoons follow a similar bill.
It's worth knowing a bit about the place if you've never been. Porters is a family-run bar and restaurant on the High Street of Hastings Old Town, trading since 1986. It's housed in a Grade 2 listed building, and the interior gives away its age: exposed beams, a fireplace, and photographs of musicians on the walls. There's also a tucked-away outdoor seating area if the weather is on your side.
