Free Sunday acoustic open mic session at The Horn, with a featured set by the Richard Hurford Trio and spots for local musicians.
The Richard Hurford Trio are the featured act at The Horn on Sunday 13 December, as part of the Blue Angel Open Mic. It's a Sunday afternoon session, running from 3pm to 6pm, and entry is free.
Around the featured set, the afternoon works as a proper open mic: acoustic floor spots for local musicians to step up and play. It's a session that welcomes all acoustic styles, so you'll hear a fair mix of whoever turns up from across the city. Bill hosts the whole thing, keeping it moving between the featured set and the open slots.
There's a bit of history to this one. The Blue Angel is The Horn's free Sunday acoustic session, and it's now in its 29th year at the venue. It's run in a professional setting — stage, P.A. system, tables and chairs — rather than just a few chairs around a room, so it's a proper spot to sit and listen. The Horn itself is St Albans' long-running live music pub, right by the City station, with a public bar and especially late opening on Fridays and Saturdays.

It runs from 3pm to 6pm at The Horn, Victoria Street, AL1 3TE.
