About this event

And Yet, Here We Are present But Then, There They Were is on Thursday 19 November 2026 at The Library, Oxford, with doors at 19:30. Tickets start at £4.40, including the booking fee.

An second hour of favourite audio comedy sketches from the long-established Oxford quintet. It's like listening to the radio, except you have to go to a special place to do it. For fans of Mitchell & Webb, Fry & Laurie, Key & Peele, and even some acts that aren't duos, like Absolutely and Monty Python. The night will open with the excellently smutty and hilarious spoken word of Abbie Loosemore (from top synthpoppers No Worries If Not)

Soot Sprite + Aftercare + Sandi Toxic

The Library · Oxford

Oh yes pals! We welcome emo-core shoegazers Soot Sprite to Oxford as they head out on tour in November - let's welcome them with open arms at the Library on Thurs 12th Nov! Soot Sprite originated in Devon in 2018 by front-woman Elise Cook. Since then they have released 3 EP’s (one self released) and their debut album under Specialist Subject Records. Soot Sprite extensively toured the UK and Europe, sharing the stage with bands such as Sweet Pill, SUDS, Chase Petra and Bears In Trees and released their debut album ‘Wield Your Hope Like A Weapon’ in 2025 to much critical acclaim. Clash Magazine- “A piece of art that perfectly captures something vital about what it means to hope for a better 2025 - 8/10” KEXP - “A potent set of alternative sweeping rock and epic bedroom rock that mixes shoegaze, grunge and emo elements to serve as the backdrop to Elise’s urgent, expressive, dark-yet triumphant lyrics” This is a hot ticket in the intimate basement of the Library - looking forward to having them back in town after they played our Oh, Community! last summer!

Indica Blues and BarrelHaus Live @ The Library Pub

The Library · Oxford

Doom desert-rock from Indica Blues and heavy alt-rock from Oxford’s BarrelHaus. Expect heavy. About Indica Blues: Since forming in 2014, Indica Blues have crafted a reputation as one of the UK’s most compelling psychedelic, stoner-doom hybrids. Once described as “bong-filling rock that is platinum heavy, but blessed with a melodic sensibility underneath it all,” their blend of fuzz-drenched blues, doom, sludge, and psychedelic melancholy has earned them fans across continents and glowing press from underground reviewers and major publications alike. About BarrelHaus: An alt-rock trio from Oxford, UK. Best played loud. Praise for BarrelHaus: God Is In The TV Zine: ‘One of the most exciting rock bands in the UK.’ Tom Robinson (BBC Radio 6): ‘A great combination of powerful playing and proper songwriting.’ Nightshift Music Magazine: ‘Every song here is great.’ Oxfordshire Music Scene: ‘Hard-rock carnage.’ Dave Gilyeat (BBC Introducing): ‘So rockin’!’ RGSoundwaves: ‘It sounds amazing’!
