About This Open Mic
The Night
The Blues Kitchen Camden is a slice of New Orleans on Camden High Street — bourbon, soul food and live music seven nights a week. Its long-running Sunday Jam (going since 2009) is one of London's most iconic blues open jams: a house band anchors the room, then players sign up from 7pm and the jam runs from 8:30pm until midnight. Full backline and PA, a serious standard, and a genuinely electric Sunday-night atmosphere.
