Yes, there is. You're in luck!

A chicago-style blues band, Pete G and the Magnitones
http://www.magnitones.com/ , are playing tonight at:

Ain't Nothin' But The Blues Bar
http://www.aintnothinbut.co.uk/
20 Kingly St, Soho, London W1 
020 7287 0514

You can listen to their CD on the Magnitones' website if you want to
see what they're like. I may even pop down there myself tonight
although there again I may not as I've just come back from Borough
Market with some Ostrich and I don't want to cart it around with me.

It's free before 8:30 (it might be 8:00, can't remember), otherwise
you have to pay a fiver. Closes at 2:30 in the morning.

The place fills up early (mainly to avoid the charge, but tonight
especially as the Magnitones are actually quite good).

And you may want to put two dates in your diary for December, both at
the 606 Club (http://www.606club.co.uk): Tony O'Malley is on Sunday 21
December, and the following day Adam Phillip is there. Should both be
good nights.

Tonight, DEFINITELY, I'd recommend Pete G and the Magnitones at the
Blues Bar as mentioned above.
