Close to Sainte-Catherine Church, Roskam bar stands out not only for its beer selection but also for hosting one of Brussels' most exciting jazz sessions every Sunday. Despite the bar's vibrant atmosphere, admission to the sessions is free, creating a unique dynamic between the concert space near the stage and the lively ambiance of the bar area. Roskam has a particular fondness for bandleaders who specialize in low-pitched instruments, with recent performances by Hélène Duret, Grégoire Tirtiaux, and Sam Comerford of Thunderblender showcasing their mastery of the bass clarinet, baritone saxophone, and bass saxophone respectively. While these artists may not yet be widely recognized beyond Brussels, their talent suggests they have the potential to garner international acclaim.
