💔 Unfortunately, today’s Watson Jazz Quartet performance has been cancelled.

We’re genuinely gutted, as we know so many of you were looking forward to one last afternoon of jazz at The Drunken Duck this summer.

The decision has been made because of the weather, and we completely understand it. With the band playing outside in the alleyway, they simply can’t risk damaging their instruments and equipment in the rain. As much as we’d love to squeeze everyone inside, our little pub just isn’t big enough to host the quartet indoors.

A huge thank you to Watson Jazz Quartet for always bringing such an incredible atmosphere to the Duck. We’ll be doing everything we can to get them back as soon as we get a spell of reliable weather.

We’re still open as usual today, with some cracking ales and craft b**rs pouring, so if you fancy escaping the rain, pop in for a pint and a catch-up.

Thanks so much for your understanding and continued support. ❤️🍻

🎷 TODAY’S THE DAY! 🎷

It’s your LAST CHANCE this year to catch the brilliant Watson Jazz Quartet at The Drunken Duck! 🦆🎶

These guys first joined us for the Blues Fest and impressed us so much that we simply had to get them back… for a THIRD time! 😍

They’ll be bringing the alleyway to life from 2–4pm today, and we’re praying to the b**r gods that the rain stays away. 🌤️🍺

And speaking of b**r… we’ve got some extra good stuff pouring for the occasion, so you can enjoy a cracking pint while soaking up some live jazz.

Bring your mum, dad, mates, dogs, and your dogs’ friends. Basically, bring everyone. 😂

Let’s make this one last proper jazz afternoon of the year — and make it the best one yet. ❤️
