The Piano Bar Soho is a discreet cocktail bar—a club within a club—that doubles as recording studios by day, transforming into a stage for exceptional jazz talent after dark. Hidden inside Jack Solomons, this intimate Soho haven offers impeccable table service, showcasing the best new jazz stars from the studios.
A jazz pianist and vocalist with an ear for both craft and character, Olly studied music in London before forming his trio — a stripped-back outfit rooted in the swing tradition but unafraid to stretch into modern arrangements. His album Caught in the Rain, recorded in 2024, captures his approach: clean lines, heartfelt delivery, and a rhythm section that knows exactly when to hold back and when to drive forward.
Now making appearances at Piano Bar Soho and Alfie’s Soho, Olly is quickly finding his place among the Soho Live Music Club circle. His sets strike a rare balance — deeply musical yet totally unpretentious — making him a quietly exciting addition to our growing list of fresh jazz voices.
Behind the doors of Jack Solomons Jazz Club, The Piano Bar sits quietly in the back — equal parts recording studio and late-night hideout. By day, it’s where music is made. By night, it slips into something smoother: low lighting, sharp cocktails, and live jazz so close you’ll feel every note. It’s not open to passers-by — entry’s by booking, ticket, or membership only.
