About this event

Tim Penn & The Second Line is on Saturday 9 January 2027 at Green Note, London, with doors at 19:00. Tickets start at £18.70, including the booking fee.

Over the last few years, Tim Penn and The Second Line have firmly established their reputation as one of the top New Orleans R&B outfits in London, regularly gigging at top London clubs and bars such as Nightjar in Old Street, Upstairs at Ronnie Scott’s (9 consecutive sold-out shows) and Pizza Express Soho. If you like Fats Domino, Professor Longhair, Dr John, Allen Toussaint, The Neville Brothers, mixed in with a nod to Ray Charles and Tom Waits and an occasional bit of old school Jelly Roll Morton - then this is one band you won’t want to miss. Tim Penn is of course no stranger to The Green Note, having played The Green Note Basement Bar regularly ever since it opened in 2014, along with Second Line guitarist, Chris Proctor. Going back to the 1970s, he played with the legendary Dorris Henderson’s Eclection and also in the Kevin Coyne band alongside Andy Summers (The Police) and Gordon Smith (Described by John Peel as ” The foremost white Blues guitarist in the world “). These days, as well as leading The Second Line, he can also be found playing with The Cadillac Kings (“The U.K.’s finest purveyors of blues & swing” Blues in Britain Magazine). "These guys are amaz...

An intimate evening with Richard Shindell

Green Note · London

***NB: This show is mixed seating and standing. Seating is limited and available on a first come first served basis.*** Richard Shindell lives as both an immigrant and emigrant, crossing thresholds, that informs his illumination of the human experience through narrative song. Shindell has inhabited a Zen Buddhist monastery, busked in the streets of Paris, opened for Joan Baez (who covered several of his songs), and collaborated with Grammy-winner Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan, Levon Helm, Elvis Costello). Originally from New York, now living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Shindell is a writer whose songs paint pictures, tell stories, juxtapose ideas and images, inhabit characters, vividly evoking entire worlds along the way and expanding our sense of just what it is a song may be. Meticulously recorded over three years in New York and Buenos Aires, his most recent release, Careless, offered an ambitious, luxurious, full-length statement. Shindell immersed himself in the studio, allowing the time and latitude to explore, experiment, take risks—to play—as each of these eleven songs was given form and substance. While his signature acoustic guitar style is used to good effect, Careless a...

Green Note · London

TWO CROWS FOR COMFORT: Two time MCMA Roots Duo/Group of the Year, Two Crows for Comfort, are a touring folk/Americana duo from the prairie wonderland of Manitoba, Canada. Playing well over one hundred shows each year, these troubadours spend most of their time on the road in a 20 foot camper with their 90 pound rescue dog, Elliot. They’ve become known for not only their powerful lead vocals, intricate harmonies and unique arrangements but also their comedic yet poignant storytelling and off-the-cuff stage banter that has folks smiling long after the night is over. They've been seen at festivals across Canada, the US, Europe and the UK including the Winnipeg Folk Festival (MB), Maverick Americana Festival (UK), Dripping Springs Songwriters Festival (TX), Black Bear Americana Festival (CT), and the Blueberry Festival (AK) and have opened for the likes of Bruce Cockburn, Ani DiFranco, David Amram, and Pokey LaFarge.

Night River presents... DG Solaris + Hattie Whitehead

Green Note · London

DG Solaris returns to Green Note for his fifth annual end-of-year show, a chance to share new songs and catch up with old friends and supporters, this time joined by the brilliant Hattie Whitehead. The project of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Danny Green, DG Solaris moves between intimate indie-folk, off-kilter pop and something altogether harder to pin down. Formerly frontman of cult indie-folk band Laish, Green has released music through the years to acclaim from BBC 6 Music, Uncut, Mojo and more, and has toured extensively across the UK and Europe. This Green Note show comes ahead of a new DG Solaris album, A Childish Idea, a playful, restless collection that pushes beyond the quieter folk of previous records into something more rhythmic, colourful and alive. Expect new songs, old favourites, stories, special guests and a few surprises along the way. Opening the evening is Hattie Whitehead. A formidable performer in her own right, Hattie is also the voice of Hejira, the acclaimed band celebrating the music of Joni Mitchell. She is one of Danny’s favourite collaborators, and the pair will join forces for a few songs during the evening. An intimate evening of songs and co...

Janileigh Cohen

Green Note · London

Janileigh Cohen’s music began quietly. Songs written in a shed at the bottom of her grandmother’s garden in rural Lancashire, inspired by Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell. Those early, solitary beginnings have since rippled outward in unexpected ways. A piano cover of Nick Cave’s The Ship Song led to a sync in the acclaimed Australian film Blueback, while her rendition of Jackson C. Frank’s timeless Blues Run the Game featured in an episode of the Emmy Award–winning US drama This Is Us. Her debut album ‘As a Child’ released on March 11th 2026, was recorded with an array of stellar musicians from Manchester to Nashville, made possible in part through the generous support of her listeners. Following the release of the album, she will be joining Eric Bibb on his UK tour in March 2026 & headline tour in November 2026. It is a quietly assured debut, born out of a longing for a family, forgiveness and learning to let go.
