An unused space on Wood Street in Liverpool city centre has reopened with a dive bar concept named DeeDee's Den & Dive. The back room of Black Rabbit Shot Co, which has its main entrance on Fleet Street at the other side of the building, has been taken over by the Diego's Demise team to launch a country and rock dive bar.

In 2024, the team behind the original Krazyhouse site returned to boot up the alternative scene with the opening of K1 Metal Club - a spiritual successor of Krazyhouse's first floor and the city's only dedicated heavy metal venue. K1 moved into the Camel Club space next door and was quickly joined by a sister site of it's own, Diego's Demise - a rock-focused dive bar.

DeeDee's is a two-floor venue featuring live music, free jukebox tunes and late-night American comfort food like pancakes. DeeDee's brands itself as a "haven for music lovers and late-night revellers", promoting live music spanning country, classic rock, rock and roll, "big singalong floor-fillers" and an extensive menu of flavoured whiskies.

The upstairs "den" opened on Friday, September 11, with the basement "dive" set to follow shortly after and licensed until late. DeeDee’s will also showcase emerging local talent, with management currently scouting local solo acts, duos, and trios across the region.

Adam Coffey, operations manager for DeeDee’s Den & Dive, said: "After seeing the incredible response to Diego’s Demise, we knew Liverpool was ready for the next chapter in the story.

"DeeDee’s is all about great music, incredible atmosphere, and proper late-night hospitality. Whether you're stopping by for great tunes, a stack of pancakes, or a late-night flavoured whisky, DeeDee’s is going to bring a fantastic, welcoming vibe to Fleet Street."
