JAZZLIVE at the Crypt was established in 1995 as St. Giles Jazz Club and quickly gained a deserved reputation as one of the UK’s premier jazz venues. Its weekly Friday night concerts have featured the top musicians from London, the UK and Europe, and beyond. With its ancient and varied history, the Crypt is the perfect setting for a live jazz venue. Its gothic architecture adds to the mystery of the space deep below the renowned George Gilbert Scott's "St. Giles' Church" on Camberwell Church Street. The Crypt is actually part of the original Anglo-Saxon Church which stood on this site from at least the 11th Century until it was destroyed by fire in 1841. https://www.jazzlive.co.uk
