Two Bob Bit & Jennie Ives @ The Gatehouse Tavern
Tickets
Jan 30 @ 8:00 pm – 11:00 pm

Two Bob Bit are at the lovely Gatehouse in central Coventry on Thursday January 30th with our very special Special Guest, Jennie Ives of the Hoarse Whisperers sitting in for a few numbers. Blues diva Jennie can growl her way through a Memphis Minnie classic, soar into the high and lonesome purity of Appalachian murder ballads and break your heart with tender tales of love and loss in modern alt-country classics. Come join us if you can – and bring an instrument for the open mic session.
