OPEN CALL: Music producers – Jazz, Blues, Disco, Funk

Open Call for Live Music & DJ Collaborators / Producers

Oriole Bar is looking for dynamic and creative Live Music and DJ Collaborators / Producers to enrich our programming in the heart of London. Our vision is to establish Oriole as a vibrant live music hub, supporting the grassroots music sector during these challenging times.

We’re eager to partner with talented individuals or teams specialising in Jazz, Blues, Soul, Swing, Latin, World, Funk, and Disco and are open to suggestions.

While we have a dedicated roster of artists, we’re keen to expand our offerings and maximise the use of our unique venue. We’re particularly interested in developing new programming strands for:

• Monday and Tuesday evenings
• Late-night Wednesday and Thursday
• Sunday Jazz dinner experiences

Beyond performances, we also see opportunities for rehearsals and meetings for our collaborators and co-producers.

We’re seeking collaborators with an established brand and a proven ability to attract an audience. We also welcome and encourage diversity in all its forms.

Our Venue at a Glance:

• Downstairs: Seated capacity of 70, standing capacity of 120
• Upstairs: Seated capacity of 50

Compensation & Collaboration:

Our standard model involves a cover charge that directly supports our musicians. However, we are open to exploring diverse models. For example, we’ve lining up a partnership on ticketed events that include food and drink packages, benefiting both the artists and the house. We’re flexible and ready to discuss innovative ways of working together. Either way it will be a fee per performance.

Interested?

If you’re passionate about live music and believe your vision aligns with ours, please email your CV and programming ideas to [email protected]. Rosie will review submissions and be in touch if there’s an opportunity for us to work together.
