Stackattack is back at Hoochi TONIGHT 🔊

Phil Gleave & Kayleigh Hall from Crookedhorizon are going back2back and taking over until 4am!

STACKATTACK doesn’t really do subtle. Luckily, neither do we 👽

Apparently you lot have heard Hoochi’s alright.
We’d play it cool, but look at the place 😂

Turns out being a bit weird, a bit rough round the edges and doing things our own way works just fine!

Hump Day 🐪

Hoochi’s shut, the lights are off and for one more night Rochdale can enjoy a bit of peace and quiet... Tomorrow we ruin that ☠️

Gavin Yarker's back for Karaoke Thursday and, as usual, absolutely no audition process has taken place. If you want the mic, it’s yours. Murder a classic, discover a talent nobody knew you had, or make your mates regret bringing you out.

Every singer gets a free shot for their trouble and the Lucky 7 drinks offers are on all night!

9pm–3am. Back tomorrow

Try not to miss us too much 🖤

Karaoke at Hoochi isn’t about being good. That would ruin it 🎤

Thursday & Sunday nights, Gavin Yarker hands you the mic and the rest is between you, the crowd and whatever song you’re about to absolutely butcher.

Every singer gets a FREE SHOT for having the nerve, and the Lucky 7 offers are running all night — because confidence is considerably cheaper after a couple of drinks.

9PM–3AM | EVERY THURSDAY & SUNDAY

Come sing. Come heckle. Come witness crimes against music.

Hoochi Karaoke. Talent optional. Commitment essential 🖤🎤

We could’ve bought a nice big plant for this corner.

But nobody’s ever woken up on Sunday morning and thought “f**k me, that was a good plant.”

So we put a photobooth in instead 🤷‍♂️📸

Only at Hoochi!

There’s something about this little room 🖤

Technically we’re on the first floor. Basement vibes though. Dark, loud, sweaty and exactly how we like it.

We’ve never tried to be the nicest bar in town. We’d rather be the one you remember.

And judging by this lot, plenty of you seem to agree.

Massive thanks to everyone who keeps walking up those stairs and filling our dancefloor. You lot are what makes Hoochi, Hoochi.

We’ll keep doing it our way. You keep turning up 😎

Different on purpose. Always have been 👽

GILES. EVERY SATURDAY 😎

Trying to work out what Giles is going to play next is pretty much a waste of your time. His sets can go absolutely anywhere, and that’s exactly how we like it.

If it’s good, it gets played. Simple as that. You won’t find the same safe, predictable playlist you’ve already heard five times that night somewhere else.

Giles takes care of Saturdays from 10PM til 4AM

We don’t play the norm at Hoochi. Never really seen the point 😎

ELDER EMO IS BACK ON FRIDAY 🖤

She abandoned us last month. We’ve almost forgiven her...
Almost.

But the natural order has been restored and Elder Emo is back behind the decks at Hoochi Koochi for her usual first Friday of the month takeover.

Expect eyeliner. Questionable life choices. Songs you absolutely did not grow out of. And a room full of people who still know every fu***ng word.

This is EMO NIGHT at Hoochi.
Different on purpose 🖤

👾 STAFF WANTED 👾

We could write one of those painfully corporate posts looking for “enthusiastic, outgoing individuals to join our dynamic team”…

But this is Hoochi!

We want the weirdos, goths, emos, indie, punks, rockers, ravers, inked skin doodlers, pierced human pin cushions, alternative oddballs, non square normals, misfits, alien beings and general creatures of the night 👽

Basically, if you’ve spent most of your life being told you’re a bit different, you’ll probably fit in nicely.

You’ll need personality, attitude, a decent work ethic and the ability to keep your head when Hoochi is absolutely bouncing.

Get in and you’re not just picking up a few bar shifts. You’re joining the inner circle.

Think you’re Hoochi enough?

Drop us a message 🖤

Other places have karaoke nights.
Hoochi has THIS!

That is, technically, Zombie by The Cranberries being sung on the video. We appreciate that may not be immediately obvious 🫣

Meanwhile there's people “dancing”, playing pool in the background and absolutely nobody is asking her to stop. Being able to sing has never been allowed to get in the way of a good night here.

EVERY THURSDAY + SUNDAY | 9PM–3AM with DJ Gavin Yarker

Get on the mic and you get a FREE SHOT. (Yes, even if you do this to Zombie) ☠️

Lucky 7 drinks offers running all night too 🥃

We could make karaoke a bit more civilised, but then we’d just be another bar!
