Woah! Is it March already? We’re already three gigs in to the year, including our previous show at the Freebutt, where we got selected as one of only four bands to appear in the Brighton heat of the Red Stripe Music Awards. Thanks to everyone that came to support us and help us aim for the final, which takes place in London later in the year.
If you missed the Freebutt show, our loud headline appearance at The Providence, or the special acoustic show with The Bobby McGees at Audio, you’ll have to wait for April to catch us, when we’ll be playing at Hector’s House in Brighton on Saturday 3rd.
If you’re in the capital, or you fancy venturing out, we’re also playing at Alan McGee (of Creation Records and Poptones fame) and Danny Watson’s Death Disco, which is at Notting Hill Arts Club in… Notting Hill.
Then, in May, it’s back to Brighton for our own Rock Riot show on Saturday, the 29th. We’re going to get some very special guests for this one, and you really, really don’t want to miss it.
So, hope you’re having a happy March, and see you at one of our forthcoming shows.

That’s right kiddies, Left Hand Red are off down to Transmission Studios tomorrow to record some new material. We’ll be camping out there all weekend and hopefully getting four tracks down on to polycarbonate (that’s what CDs are made of kids) for you aural pleasure.

LHR are on a rock-mission this week starting with an appearance on the Damo and Ace show for Juice FM this evening (Tues 7th Oct) around 8:00pm-ish, then it’s on with the amps as we warm up at rehearsal on Wed for gigs on Thurs and Fri.
Thursday we are playing at Sussex Uni for the freshers, this gig will also be a nice warmup for the main event on Friday.
Friday sees us at the Brighton Coalition playing with some of Brighton’s finest live bands – kicking off are Friday Night Hero followed by 4 or 5 magicians, Doll and the Kicks and then ourselves finishing the night off nicely. Seriously, this is going to be a great night (and not just because we are there!) so come on down and have yourself a good time.

That’s right, drum-monkey Russell is back from his travels to exotic lands, many and wondrous.
Having just dropped in from the States with a Union Flag parachute on his back, Russell made an appearance at the Hare and Hounds gig on Saturday 24th, before being dragged on stage for an unplanned encore of Midnight Sun. Despite not having played for three months, he did us all proud.
Of course, Russell’s return also marks the end of Dan O’Driscoll’s spell with the band. We’d like to thank him for all his efforts! We’re sad to see him go, but he is already working with another band and we wish him the best of luck.
