A relaxed and engaging night of live music is on offer with Harry J at The Swan Pangbourne. Set beside the river, this performance focuses on well-known songs, strong musicianship, and a welcoming atmosphere.

He performs music made famous by Fleetwood Mac, Bon Jovi, Adele, Tracy Chapman, and the Eagles, among many others.

This approach keeps familiar songs fresh while remaining true to what makes them loved.
Meanwhile, the intimate setting of The Swan Pangbourne suits this style perfectly. The room allows the sound to travel clearly, while the audience can follow the looping process as it happens. Additionally, the relaxed layout encourages a social feel without pulling focus from the performance. The riverside surroundings help the evening flow at an easy pace.
