Every week at Leadbelly’s, the American south theme is enjoyed with extra ‘grits’ on their ‘Busking Blues’ nights from 8pm until 10pm. The music is orchestrated by Borough’s favourite comperes Superglad who have a proven track record for finding and fielding local, original talent – so look out for some of the best bands around playing two or three-piece intimate acoustic sets in the bar by the water.
Also worth noting is Leadbelly’s two-for-one cocktail deal every weeknight from 5pm until 7pm so even if you aren’t there for the music it’s a fine place to start any evening.
