On tour from Ireland, Gatehouse is a distinguished Irish traditional band known for their thoughtful interpretations, rich musicality, and deep respect for the tradition. Featuring Rachel Garvey on vocals, Jacinta McEvoy on guitar and concertina, John McEvoy on fiddle and mandola, and John Wynne on flute and whistles, the group brings together some of Ireland?s most respected musicians.
Their music blends refined instrumental interplay with compelling vocal performances, offering a sound that is both rooted and refreshing. From evocative ballads to lively dance tunes, Gatehouse strikes a delicate balance between tradition and innovation.
Their debut album, T?s Nua, received critical acclaim for its subtlety and elegance, followed by the well-received Heather Down the Moor, which further established their signature style. Their live performances have been praised for their warmth, precision, and ability to connect with audiences.
The Poppy and Pint stands as a vital community asset on Pierrepont Road, West Bridgford, a testament to its evolution from a former British Legion club into a thriving local hub. It serves not merely as a commercial establishment but as a focal point for Lady Bay, offering a consistent space for connection and shared experience.
Within its walls, a welcoming atmosphere prevails, where the subtle aroma of locally roasted coffee often mingles with the murmur of conversation. The main bar area, with its comfortable seating and thoughtful lighting, provides a relaxed setting, while a dedicated family space ensures comfort for all ages.
Practicality meets pleasure with a well-appointed beer garden that offers views over the adjacent bowling green and tennis courts. The venue boasts excellent accessibility and a comprehensive drinks selection, featuring an extensive array of local and national ales, traditional ciders, and a curated list of wines and spirits.
Beyond daily service, the Poppy and Pint hosts a diverse calendar of events. From regular folk and jazz club evenings to various community groups, exercise classes, and parent-and-baby sessions, it provides a dynamic programme that caters to a broad spectrum of local interests.
