The Horn

The Horn Hertfordshire's premier live music venue. Situated in the City Centre, The Horn is recognised as one of the top music pub venues in the UK.
(1470)

We won 'Entertainment Pub of the Year 2008' and 'Live Music Pub Venue 2008'. We show around 80 acts a month and contrary to popular belief, 90% of these bands are original and not tributes. There's a mass of history The Horn has to offer, including John Peel being a frequent customer back in the day. Numerous artists have kicked off their careers here, such as Kim Wilde (who was also a barmaid) an

d Paul Young. More recently bands such as The Gallows (held their album release party here), The Subways and Enter Shikari.

18+ (+14's must be accompanied by an adult)

We like local bands. If your interested in playing drop us a line at [email protected]

🍀 NIALL MCNAMEE LIVE AT THE HORN 🍀

📅 Thursday 5 November 2026
📍 The Horn, St Albans

We're delighted to welcome one of the most exciting emerging voices on the UK indie scene to The Horn this November.

Niall McNamee blends the passion of his Irish roots with a fresh alternative rock sound, combining Celtic storytelling, indie attitude and infectious energy. Imagine Shane MacGowan, Dolores O'Riordan, Chris Martin and Alex Turner all influencing the same songwriter, and you'll be somewhere close.

Following sold-out headline shows across London, Bristol, Glasgow, Birmingham, Dublin and beyond, plus high-profile support slots with The Wolfe Tones and Louis Dunford, Niall's reputation as a captivating live performer continues to grow.
His latest single, Clapham Wine, offers the perfect introduction – packed with indie swagger, Irish trad influences and the kind of memorable songwriting that stays with you long after the final chorus.

Don't miss your chance to catch this rising star in the intimate surroundings of The Horn.
