Liverpool has so many incredible independent venues, it’s a proper music person’s city, and Independent Venue Week offers them a time to shine. My personal favourite is The Jacaranda Phase One. Famous in Liverpool for yonks, the new addition of ‘Phase One’ is very similar to the original Jacaranda, it’s a bar, venue, and record store, what more could you want? It’s quite a small venue but it’s comfortable and homely, with a decent cocktail menu, a wide selection of records and even listening booths – well, basically sheds with turntables and fairy lights in them. Every time I’ve been to a gig at Phase One it’s been a lovely evening, it’s definitely one of the best venues in Liverpool and would be my first recommendation to anyone who is in the area.
