Bogui Jazz
It’s always worth checking out what’s happening at Bogui Jazz, where it likes a big-band sound as much as it does intimate ensembles, whether big international names or well-established local groups. If you can’t decide between the many groups on offer, the Tuesday-night jam sessions (11pm to 3am) are a good way to get a feel for this terrific venue.

El Despertar
El Despertar is all about jazz down to its roots.

There are live performances every Friday and Saturday, as well as most Thursdays and Sundays. Concerts start at 10.30pm.

El Rincón del Arte Nuevo
With 29 years in the business, this small venue knows what its punters like and it serves up a nightly feast of singer-songwriters for an appreciative crowd. The acts are as diverse as the genre itself, with Melendi, Fran Postigo and Diego El Negro among the recent performers. Concerts start at 10pm.

El Buho Real
It looks like your average Madrid bar de copas, but El Buho Real (The Royal Owl) is all about acoustic music. It interprets the term pretty widely to include flamenco and singer-songwriter solo acts, and it’s been around long enough to have drawn a loyal following. Concerts start at 9.30pm.

Jazz Bar
Jazz aficionados will love this place for its endless jazz soundtrack and private booths (at last, a bar that has gone for privacy rather than trying to cram too many people in) and there’s plenty of greenery to keep you cheerful.

Maderfaker Funk Club
Dedicated to the black arts of funk, soul and blues, this narrow bar is laid-back cool. It rarely draws the crowds it deserves, but that makes it all the more mellow.
