- 12.00 Timothy Newman

- 16.00 Violet Society
TIMOTHY NEWMAN: Tim will be playing us some literally heavy tunes on his acoustic guitar, he is an acomplished singer songwriter and is in the process of putting together a band, but before they are complete Tim is playing solo gigs around Brighton regularly. His music has a big low warmth to it, but clearly Tim has been heavily influenced by grunge and metal, which also shows through amidst that warmth.
MONTY: Playing some dirty folky blues all written in the last couple of months in his bedroom, this will be the first time Monty has played to any kind of audience on his own. Monty has been and still is a part of various bands, but now is writing his own music and hopes to put other musicians to it as soon as possible. Taking influence from many genres, his music is minimalist and raw, but for the most part is simply dirty folky blues…
Violet Society: ”Violet Society are a band that started up in late January 2009. All members of the band are currently or have previously been to Brighton Institute of Modern Music. The band has three main songwriters giving them a varied sound from song to song. With a mixture of influences from many styles the band have come together to create this somewhat unique sound for all of your willing ears to hear.”
