Sunday Hot Club

Overview

There's Sunday sessions, and then there's Sunday sessions. As varied as your state of mind on the last day of the weekend, some call for boozy brunches, others for chilled evenings — and as Vieille Branche is happy to demonstrate, some just need a relaxed bit of jazz. That's what Sunday Hot Club is all about: hanging out, soaking in great jazz and French gypsy sounds, and enjoying some cheese and wine. It does take place in a French cafe, after all.

Each week, gypsy violinist Jan Van Dijk from Swing Dynamique will take to the stage with a selection of local and French musicians, and offer up the soundtrack to your cruisy arvo. Making an ace shindig even better, there'll also be Emile & Solange cheeseboards on offer, plus French wine and craft beers on tap. Fabuleux!

Doors open at 1pm, and while the music doesn't kick off until 2pm, arriving early to score a good seat is recommended.
