Music Nest aims to bring top quality live music to families at a reduced volume, with more light, toys and activities for children and a relaxed attitude to noise, breastfeeding and all the other things that come with having children! It's a space that's designed to not just tolerate children but welcome them. The gigs are open to anyone who has a ticket and is up for listening to music in a relaxed and family friendly environment. More details can be found at www.musicnest.co.uk.

GREENNESS are a folktronica duo featuring English musician and producer Graham Pratt and French singer-songwriter Cess Frangi. Their debut EP 'Bicephaly' (2016), a collection of songs where intricate guitar melodies meet vocals both powerful and fragile, tells stories of love, loss, dreams and visions. With airplay on the BBC and a performance at The Royal Albert Hall it's clear their blend of acoustic textures, beautifully sung vocals and subtle electronic wizardry is finding a receptive audience.

JOE WILKES is a songsmith through and through. His guitar playing is outstanding but never overstated, supporting beautifully crafted songs that reference the troubadors of the 60s folk revival but brought bang up to date. With insightful lyrics and and a willingness to take on important subjects from the political to the personal it's not hard to see why Joe is so well respected on the circuit. We're very excited to have him join us for a rare Brighton appearance.

Please note: We ask that parents/carers are responsible for their children at all times. There is seating at the venue and there are colourful rugs and cushions to sit on but a seat can't be guaranteed for all. Sound levels are significantly reduced to be more friendly to small ears but we can't guarantee that music will always be below recommended levels so you might want to consider some ear defenders. £1 tickets are needed for all children even babies. This is because we have to reduce capacity significantly to make it comfortable and safe for families and this small fee helps in covering the extra costs we need to help put the event on. Please check out www.musicnest.co.uk and let us know if you have any questions!

Description

The Brunswick has been transformed through an extensive refurbishment programme to become the premier music and arts venue in Hove. The owners are committed to providing quality, value for money and a friendly atmosphere.We believe that a pub is an essential part of any thriving community, and should be seen as a facility for the whole community. By encouraging local groups, we run a range of classes: acting, singing, painting, language, wine tasting; and have become a meeting place for a number of groups. With a large garden and a number of meeting rooms, we can offer space for most clubs, societies or social groups. If your looking for somewhere to host your book group, yoga class, dance class, debating club, and so on, give us a call, or better still, pop in. Support your local pub.

Built in the 1930’s, The Brunswick is a striking building with curved bays, turret roofs and brass crittall style windows. Much of the original paneling (the same as used in the Orient Express) has been rescued and restored, particularly in The Venue. Atmosphere and mood change as you move from the beautifully constructed sunny garden through the airy garden room to the bar (a fusion of the best of modern bar and traditional pub). Despite the high-tech sound and stage equipment, the music and arts Venue with its wood paneling, period lighting and fireplace retains a wonderfully cozy feel. Upstairs we have beautifully decorated rooms for meetings and private parties – see Function Room Hire

We offer a broad range of home cooked food every day. Accolades have included “Restaurant quality food at pub prices”; “The best Sunday Lunch in Brighton”; “As an American, I’m very critical of hamburgers – this is one of the best I’ve had anywhere.”
