About Me

The Hare & Hounds in Kings Heath has been the place to see many an up and coming band. From UB40's first ever gig in 1979 to more recently NME faves The Twang and Editors. As well as a stint from Frank Skinner, the pub has long since been a favourite on the Birmingham gig scene.

May 2006 saw the re-opening of the Hare & Hounds after considerable investment to restore the original features, throw in some retro furniture and add a Â£40,000 all singing sound system.

There are currently two spacious bars downstairs and two live venues upstairs with a modest capacity totalling 350. Bands, DJ's and artists continue to grace the stage at the Hare & Hounds showcasing up and coming talent and as well as bigger names from across the UK. Welcome To The Hare And Hounds

My Interests

We have some regular nights in place now including friendly Poker games on Monday evenings, Quiz night and Salsa classes on a Wednesday, bi-monthly Comedy night on Sundays starting on March 2nd. Also on every sunday, from March 9th onwards, is the Recovery session where roast dinners will be available from 3pm until 6pm. There will also be live accoustic acts and electronica DJs playing in the back bar to ease you out of the weekend. If you would be interested in playing at one of the future Recovery sessions, please bring a cd to the pub for the attention of Holli.

I'd like to meet:
