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.

Happy New Year!
We’re pleased to announce our first gig of 2008, and it’s a big one. The Cable Club have started up a sister show at The Prince Albert on Trafalgar Street, Brighton, and they asked us to headline! We couldn’t really say “no”, could we? Not only do you get us headlining, but also playing are 4 or 5 Magicians and Lost Cosmonaut!
As the icing on the bun, Phil Jackson of Southern Counties Radio and Sean Cread of Radio Reverb will be playing tracks by local unsigned bands downstairs to set the mood for the ensuing mayhem.
Sweet.

Summer means plenty of long, warm evenings, so why not spend them watching Left Hand Red? We’re keeping ourselves extremely busy when we’re not drinking chilled Pimms and eating fresh strawberries and cream, with visits to Camden, Eastbourne, Worthing, Tunbridge Wells (11th June — that’s tonight!), and of course Brighton.
The summer’s gigs are as follows, with more in the pipeline.
- Monday 11th June — The Forum, Tunbridge Wells
- Thursday 14th June — Pavilion Tavern, Brighton
- Friday 22nd June — Minnesota Jax, Eastbourne
- Thursday 28th June — Cable Club, Pressure Point, Brighton
- Tuesday 17th July — Funktion Rooms, Eastbourne
- Thursday 9th August — Pavilion Tavern, Brighton
- Wednesday 22nd August — The Oh! Bar, Camden
- Friday 24th August — The Rest Bar, Worthing
- Wednesday 29th August — Rock Riot at the Prince Albert, Brighton
Also, you can catch Left Hand Red’s chums, Go Johnny Go, on June’s Brighton Waves. Their raw and raucous yet incredibly catchy brand of bluesey rock is the perfect accompaniment to a cold beer and a barbecued hot dog.
