The Veterans Garage has a great Bike Night every Monday. During winter is gets a wee bit cold and dark so we thought what better way to bring us all back together than with a PARTY!!!!!!

With LIVE music from the amazing VASTOPOL who are making their Manchester debut with their fantastic sounds, add in a few bevvies with mates and some food and we are laughing!

This will definitely not be our usual sit down intimate gig so grab your dancing boots and come and get your dixie on!

“Gibbs’ songwriting is deeply personal and profound. It’s plain to see Otis Gibbs is a man you should give a damn about. ” –Rolling Stone

Otis Gibbs is a Songwriter, storyteller, painter, photographer and planter of 7,176 trees. He once wrestled a bear, and lost. He has been described as “The best unknown songwriter in music today.” If you ask him, he’ll simply say he’s a Folk Singer.

He also hosts a podcast called Thanks For Giving Damn which features your favorite musicians, journalists and historians sharing memories, backstage stories and history lessons. His podcast quickly became a cult favorite and lead to him hosting Country Built on Pandora (USA) where Otis tells stories about the history of country music to his 3 million+ subscribers. He grew up in Wanamaker, Indiana, spent 12 years in East Nashville and has recently returned home to Indianapolis with his long time partner, Amy Lashley.

“Gibbs has been likened to everyone from Guthrie to Springsteen — but his is the rare voice that stands on its own.” -Esquire

“Man, can this singer tell a story …”  -USA Today

The Hen House Presents is dedicated to bringing the best of Americana, Alt. Country, Roots & whatever else takes our fancy to an appreciative LISTENING audience at various intimate venues. We kindly ask for you to respect the artist and your fellow music lovers when the artists are performing by minimising loud chatter and we reserve the right to Shhhhhhhhh! :0)
