About Hummingbirds:
Hummingbirds (Elaine, Magdalena and Don) is the lively and creative result of three musicians who have known each other for ages and have been on separate musical journeys until their paths collided, or should I say intertwined, as this has been a harmonious coming together. We play a range of fast paced Hispanic and Latin rhythms in the main. Don our lead guitarist and Elaine, the rhythm guitarist, have played together in jazz projects before, on the main stage in Harrow Road and at Mofest. Magda our sassy and incredibly energetic performer has brought her unique personality and performance know-how to the band to lift us to another level. She’s introduced us to the ukelele and its now a key part of our sound, along with shakers, hand-drums, maracas – you name it, Magda has it. Look out for us playing in Nottingham and Derby, hope to see you soon x.
About HOP POLE:
from your current location
The Hop Pole is a local traditional community pub situated in Chilwell known as a great music venue.
It is a very old, unspoilt pub dating back to 1870. With its lovely original beams and 2 fireplaces, this gives the pub a very warm, homely feel, and with friendly staff throughout this makes The Hop Pole a fantastic place to spend the afternoon. We have a fully stocked cellar, offering draught beer, wine and spirits, along with real ale and a range of soft drinks for all non-drinkers and drivers. In the summer months the beer garden is a lovely place to sit and relax with a refreshing drink, or a tasty meal.
To accommodate all smokers, there is a heated smoking area to keep you nice and warm and the winter nights, and with disabled access and a car park on the premises this makes the pub easily accessible for all.
Every Tuesday night is dedicated to live music evenings which are fantastic nights, with different acts on each week, quiz nights also take place of a Wednesday in which there is a gallon of ale up for grabs, so come on down and test your knowledge. For that special occasion, 200 people can be accommodated for throughout and a buffet can be provided on request. So come on down to The Hop Pole where a warm and friendly welcome awaits you.
Under 18s are welcome until 9pm as long as accompanied by an adult.
