About this event

Afterhours Acoustics: Robin Bennett & friends and Premium Leisure is on Friday 6 November 2026 at Museum of, Oxford, with doors at 18:30. Tickets start at £8.80, including the booking fee.

Unique one-off performances with stars from the local music scene — live in the Museum of Oxford basement. Welcome in the shorter evenings with a night of live music performances from a handful of stars in the local music scene. Afterhours Acoustics will showcase a solo set from Premium Leisure, and a special stripped-back set from Robin Bennett & friends. Premium Leisure solo: Premium Leisure is the unfettered outlet of producer and guitarist Chris Barker. It is a home for his stash of guitar lick-laden songs, which began as a means for Chris to make music with friends. The project has evolved into a space for Chris' clunky tone-sculpting and studio explorations, while always circling back to the fundamentals: close-knit musicians making sounds together. Each Premium Leisure chapter is shaped by authenticity, with an onstage presence that can spill into something beautifully unhinged. Following the release of their debut album 'Bug Blood', Premium Leisure's upcoming EP 'Pea' will arrive later this year. Recorded and self-produced in Oxford, the record is quietly radical in its celebration of domesticity, family life, and love. More about Premium Leisure can be found here: https:...

Oxford’s Sounds: Reimagined - A Soundscape Experience

Museum of · Oxford

Experience the sounds of Oxford in this unique soundscape experience — live in the Museum of Oxford galleries & basement. We're collaborating with Cities and Memory to present a unique live show bringing together the sounds of Oxford itself with the talent of its musicians and artists. Oxford's Sounds: Reimagined will showcase a selection of Oxford's musicians who have worked with a field recording of a sound from the city. Each has then developed a piece of music or a song based on (and containing) that recording, which they will perform live at this event. This unique project sees artists being inspired by the soundscapes of our home city to create a set of songs that spring from the very sounds of Oxford itself - and a unique live event celebrating the sounds of Oxford as they've never been heard before. Expect to hear snippets from: Cities and Memory, Kid Kin, Aphra Taylor, Water Pageant, Headphones Wasp, and James Warburton. More about Cities and Memory can be found on their webpage here: https://citiesandmemory.com/sounds-city-live-oxford/. Tickets to this event includes free entry to the museum and Sounds of the City exhibition. Doors open at 6pm, with a chance to explore...
