Story

Moto Hospitality's Buskathon 2023 presents MOTOHEAD!

On Good Friday and Easter Saturday (7th & 8th April) the newly-formed MOTOHEAD, comprising Moto Hospitality CEO Ken, Technology Director Guy and M&S Brand Manager Rick, all on vocals and guitar, will embark on their first (and only?!) nationwide tour!

The band owe their current success and will be joined on tour by Neil Ellis from GTR Tuition. Roadies Jonathan, Chris and Jacob will support the band as they visit as many Moto services as possible over two days, playing a selection of their greatest hits. They'll leave Moto customers and colleagues wanting more as they jump in their tour bus and head on to the next gig. Check out their current tour dates and venues at the bottom of the page.

They'll be joined on stage throughout the tour by some special guests to create some truly memorable duets!

Buskathon 2023 & MOTOHEAD aims to raise as much as possible for Moto Foundation's national charity partners, the mental health charities Mind & SAMH.

1 in 4 of us experiences a mental health problem every year. But most of us don't get the help we need.

Ken, Guy and Rick have joined the fight for mental health - please support them by donating to their tour and join the fight too, to help ensure everyone with a mental health problem gets support and respect.

Thank you.... and ROCK ON!
