Oxfam Oxjam in Chiswick
July 23, 2011
We nipped into High Road House for bacon and eggs this morning, and were pleasantly surprised to stumble across this pop-up concert in the window of Chiswick’s Oxfam Store.
An enthusiastic lady handing out leaflets explained that this was part of the ‘Oxjam‘ Music Festival. A number of artists have been recruited to play in the windows of Oxfam stores, which of course draws a crowd and, presumably, helps sales. Oxfam have run these concerts since 2004, it must work for them.
The artist in this instance was Anoushka Lucas; a regular at Ronnie Scotts and a real class act. She goes straight on my watch list – I’ll expect to see her on Jools Holland before too long.
