So that is Thursday Throwdown exactly? Each Thursday after 11pm, we’re switching it up at Nightjar. Firstly there will be a free, late set of live music from 11.30 pm. But, better than that, thanks to Don Julio, we’re going to drink like it’s 2010! Our special late-night menu is a nod to the days (and prices!) of when Nightjar first opened, fifteen years ago.
A gifted guitarist and singer-songwriter, Mazza has been a defining presence in the UK blues scene since 2009. He has shared the stage with renowned artists such as Little George Sueref, Ian Siegal, and Adam Gussow, and has been a key figure in the London blues community, notably through his long-standing association with the iconic Ain't Nothin' But... Blues Bar.
With his new band, Mazza has masterfully blended deep Southern blues with the vibrancy of a modern four-piece rock ensemble. This unique fusion of classic and contemporary elements sets Mazza apart as a dynamic and innovative force in the blues genre. He is a regular performer at venues like London's Ain't Nothing But... Blues Bar. Other notable venues include Ram Jam Records, Nightjar, The Roxy, Temple of Art and Music, The Magic Garden, and more. He also hosts weekly residencies at various blues bars in London.
