End of the Road Festival Christmas Shindig

Event information

Once again, End of the Road return to Cargo for their annual knees-up.

What better way to ring in the Christmas season, than with live music, DJs, hot cider on the patio and Christmas presents...

Topping the bill are Newcastle's psychedelic pop polymaths Beth Jeans Houghton & The Hooves of Destiny. If you've never seen the band perform live you're in for a treat: expect towering songs of borderline genius and off-the-wall between-song banter.

"a considerable talent, with a remarkable voice and a rare star quality" (Mojo).

Support comes from...

Dan Mangan: Once a mere fresh-faced folk singer from Vancouver, Canada, Dan Mangan now stands at the world's doorstep. The proof is in the countless European jaunts, U.S. tours with The Walkmen, Decemberists and Okkervil River, endless critical acclaim and sold out theatres across Canada.

Oh Ruin: Eoin O'Ruainigh's story began in Dublin playing guitar for a string of bands (including support tours with Morrissey) before travelling to London, where he began writing solo songs. Crooning tales of childhood mischief and the first sweet stings of love, combining stomping blues with campfire quiet troubadour tunes.
