Local music night for musicians to meet and discuss collaborations, with a conversation and intimate show by singer-songwriter Mara Liddle.
Honey Comb is a new music night for the local scene, and its next date is Monday 22 March at Artisan Tap in Hartshill. It's run by the Honey Box Hive team, and it's aimed squarely at musicians themselves: a room to meet, chat and discuss potential collaborations, now settling into Monday nights at the pub. The format pairs a conversation between the host and a local musician with an intimate show.
On this particular night, the guest is Mara Liddle, a solo singer-songwriter who describes her work as vulnerable, in-the-moment lyrics set to upbeat pop tracks. She's played across the UK, including Foundry Festival, and her second EP came out of a self-set challenge to write 100 songs in three months. The conversation side of the evening will be led by host Kez Liddle, who draws on her own experience of songwriting and the music industry, both here in Stoke-on-Trent and on a national stage.

If you're a musician, the night is built for you to hang around and talk shop with other local players. If you're just coming for the music, you'll get a conversation and a set from Mara Liddle in the same sitting. It's a Monday night, so it's a bit of a different slot for a gig, and the focus is as much on the people in the room as on the stage. The evening starts at 19:00 at Artisan Tap, 552 Hartshill Road, Hartshill, ST4 6AF, and entry is free.
