The Black Horse keeps the weekly ritual alive with another seven-day run of music, mischief, and dependable downtown charm. Monday, May 4 brings back Crash & Burn Jam with Rick & Gailie, still rolling after 20 years and counting, while Tuesday hands the room over to Johann Burkhardt for open mic. Wednesday’s Music Bingo once again turns the pub into a singalong guessing game, and Thursday slides into Jazz & Blues Night with Carling Stephen and Rob Phillips leading the charge. Then the weekend opens up: Pop Machine arrives Friday with a set built from pop, rock, soul, and disco from the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s, followed by a Saturday double bill that starts with Dennis O’Toole & Old Soul and rolls into Jeanne Truax and The Jet Airliners, bringing rockabilly and roots classics into the late slot. Sunday wraps it all up with Bluegrass Menagerie, serving up an afternoon of upbeat traditional bluegrass. Same room, same welcoming chaos, another week where The Black Horse earns its reputation as one of Peterborough’s most reliable music dens.
