The B-Bar can be found at the top of a short flight of stone steps just up from Plymouth harbour in this maritime city’s historical Barbican area. It’s here in this arty venue-slash-comedy-club-slash-eatery that Haunt The Woods began their very first residency just after they formed nearly nine years ago, building a small but growing following with each gig they played.
“When we started, we were getting maybe 30 or 40 people,” says Haunt The Woods’ guitarist Phoenix Elleschild, nodding towards the compact stage half a floor below us as we sit on the B-Bar’s even-more-compact mezzanine level. “By the end of it, there were 130 or 140 people in there.”
