This is a special session where we will discuss the second published book of our book group regular Ryan Collett! He will be there to discuss the book with us, and I'm sure he'll be happy to answer all our questions. I look forward to seeing you there! The date has been scheduled a week later than usual due to a clash. We will still have a regular book group meetup scheduled for later in June. We'll meet from 6:30pm onwards and go to the room upstairs between 6:30pm and 7:00pm. Please check with the bar staff before going upstairs. We'll start the discussion at around 7:00pm and talk about the book for an hour or so before having a break. A quick note to say that if you would like to help me with the running costs of the book group, you can give a small contribution via Ko-fi: [https://ko-fi.com/annabookgroup](https://ko-fi.com/annabookgroup) Thanks! \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\ **George Falls Through Time - Ryan Collett (2026, 304 pages)** Newly laid off George’s internet bill is in his ex-boyfriend’s name. He’s got a spider-infested apartment, and two of the six dogs he’s walking in London have just escaped. It’s pure undiluted stress that sends him into a spiral, all the way to the year 1300. When he comes to, George recognizes the same rolling hills of Greenwich Park. But the luxuries and phone service of modernity are nowhere. In their place are locals with a bizarre, slanted speech in awe of his foreign clothes, who swiftly toss him in a dungeon. Despite the barbarity of a medieval world, a servant named Simon helps George acclimate to a simpler, easier existence—until a summons from the King threatens to send his life up in flames. George Falls Through Time is as much an inward journey as an outward one: an immersive exploration of identity and dislocation that pits present-day sensibilities against a raw and alien backdrop, a strangely perfect canvas for the absurd anxieties of our time. It's a profound meditation on the nature of desire perfect for fans of Madeline Miller and The Ministry of Time.

It is a carefully curated musical offering that brings together the depth of traditional devotional songs and kirtans within a serene, candlelit setting. A soulful and unique take on devotional music, the evening blends timeless melodies with fresh, expressive arrangements, creating a space for calm, reflection, and inner connection. Led by Adi Shaah - singer, producer, and creative force behind the concert - each piece is thoughtfully crafted to flow with intention, forming a journey that gently soothes, uplifts, and resonates on a deeper emotional and spiritual level. Alongside traditional compositions, Adi will also present original music within the same genre, adding a personal and contemporary dimension to the experience. The show is designed to be inclusive and immersive, creating space for the audience to gently join in and sing along, allowing a shared energy to build and a truly uplifting spiritual atmosphere to unfold. Adi Shaah has been performing on the UK’s Indian music scene for several years and has been revered for his soulfulness and versatility. He brings a unique ability to deliver impactful performances across genres - a depth that lies at the heart of Swaranjali. Swaranjali will be a musical experience in its most sincere and meditative form. https://landmarkartscentre.ticketsolve.com/ticketbooth/shows/1173672501

I’ll share all my music events here in advance first so people can RSVP earlier and avoid waiting lists. People can also share last min non‑meetup MUSIC events too.

NEW VENUE! NEW REGULAR DAY! We're now back to where Southbank Vinyl began in 2017 - The Roebuck Pub in Borough (50 Great Dover St, London SE1 4YG). We're now meeting the first Wednesday of each month at the Roebuck, where great food and drink options are available and we have our own room upstairs to play our records on the deck. Come along with a bunch of vinyl you'd like to play and share with us! This months theme is ‘Winners & Losers’. Songs that celebrate the dizzy highs of victory, and the belly-aching lows of defeat. Victorious anthems that remind you you are the champions, simply the best, or tracks that help you accept defeat and just shake it off. Whether you’re fighting the law or just for your right to party… win, draw or lose, bring some vinyl (or just yourself, a friend and a pint) and join us for a night of triumphant highs and lows. Grab a drink, enjoy some records. And don't forget to RSVP!

Hi All **I know a good few have fallen in love with The RSA and their gorgeous lounge and cocktail bar, MUSE, and our last two have been at the even more historic space, the Tavern Room. Let's just tell you how magical this place is. .. Dickens used to write his novels IN THIS ROOM. Benjamin Franklin was a fellow of the RSA AT THE TIME OF THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR. Past and present Fellows include Judi Dench, Herbie Hancock and Steven Hawking ... shall I go on? It's one of the most beautiful Georgian Houses in London, just off Strand, pretty much the original 18th century Coffee House / debating society. Now you know why I get excited inviting you here!** Our Friday 5th June Unplugged concert features US touring artist Hannah Wicklund, who has headlined the world famous Troubadour in LA, played Eric Clapton's own Crossroads Festival and performed the length and breath of the US and Europe too. Joined by the wonderful NZ artist Suze Harper and English Rose singer-songwriter Naomi Ost .. we cannot wait! * *6pm onwards - We meet from 6pm for cocktails and chats in the lovely Muse Bar, before settling in at The Tavern Room for the salon style concert.* * *7pm approx - The unplugged concert starts with intervals inbetween each artist* * *9.45pm onwards - cocktail bar open until 11 for after drinks!* **ABOUT THE LINEUP** US artist HANNAH WICKLUND has toured since she was 16, sharing stages with acts like Joan Jett, Marcus King, Deep Purple, and Greta Van Fleet, and has graced the stage at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Festival, among many others around the world. Her last studio record, ‘The Prize’ earned the honor of being named Rolling Stone Brazil’s #1 Rock Album of 2024. Hannah’s music explores themes of womanhood and of the battle between light and dark that so many of us in this world can relate to. New Zealand born SUZE HARPER was studying for her final year of law school in Paris when she became re-acquainted with her deep musical instinct and passion for live performance. After performing in Parisian jazz clubs and street busking, she honed her original sound in London—melding jazz, soul, blues, pop, and classical, leaving a career in law behind. NAOMI OST is a singer-songwriter with a big heart, a lot of feelings, and a firm belief in the healing powers of a well-timed cup of tea and a banging chorus. Drawing on the lyrical intimacy of Joni Mitchell, the emotional resonance of Eva Cassidy, and the relatability of Carole King, she writes with the instinct of someone who needs to write: not to shock or provoke, but to soothe, to process, to nourish. Book your ticket here - use our **LONDONLIVE** discount code to book: **[BOOK YOUR T|ICKETS](https://link.dice.fm/M20b86c010c3)** Can't wait to see you there for a cocktail or two!

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
