The Spin presents: The 26th Birthday Bash, featuring the mighty John Etheridge! @ Tap Social, Botley, Oxford - Wednesday 28th May, Doors 7.30pm
Doors: 7.30pm
Performance from 8.30pm
Described by Pat Metheny as “one of the best guitarists in the world”, John continues to thrill audiences across the world – as he has been over the decades, performing with such luminaries as Stephane Grapelli, Nigel Kennedy, Andy Summers (of The Police), John Williams, Soft Machine….and indeed, Pat Metheny!
Sting is quoted as having said. “I just wanted to be a real musician, like John Etheridge”
…and you can hear this guitar guru of complete awesomeness at our little club, up-close and personal! John will be hot – as ever – off an international tour with Soft Machine, so expect a night of incendiary guitaristic shenanigans!
The band features two other players who – alongside John – played the first ever Spin gig back in the last millennium, Pete Oxley and bassist Raph Mizraki! This lineup will be completed by our drum hero of choice, Rick Finlay!
Folks, these gigs always sell out very quickly, so don’t delay….book NOW!!!
A note about the venue:
- The bar at Tap Social is card payment only.
- We seat people as much as possible on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. This means that those who buy tickets first are allocated the better seats (as opposed to that allocation being for those that show up first on the night)…so, BOOK NOW (and also save money on ticket prices with our early bird deal)!!
- We are ready to support people who have additional accessibility needs, please let us know in advance via the contact form in order for our team of volunteers to design the assigned seating plan to accommodate you.

Over the last 20+ years, The Spin has presented live music of the highest calibre within the broad 'contemporary jazz' genre, creating scintillating nights out for anybody with a taste for interesting, exciting, alluring and luscious music.
At The Spin, we believe that our events should be accessible to all, as well as affordable. This, in part, is only made possible with the help of our team of generous volunteers, who volunteer not only their time but also their expertise towards making our gigs the success that they are.
Every musician who plays at The Spin gets properly paid - and it is through your ticket purchases alone that we can do that. Our events are run on a tight budget to keep ticket prices down; we realise that not everyone can afford or may be willing to pay for higher ticket prices. However, for those of you who are happy to pay a little more and contribute further to the efforts of The Spin, we are giving you the opportunity to ’support the club' by making a voluntary contribution on top of your ticket price. These donations will be greatly appreciated and will help us to continue putting on our fantastic live jazz events.
