Description

Hugs of the Sky is the fusion between two psychedelic rock bands from Limburg, Belgium.
The two bands largely consisted out of the same members and they decided to bundle their powers for a split-album in the Summer of 2018. This album opened such an adventurous and exciting trip that only some months later 2 more albums were released. The third one "Virtual Lullaby Circus" is now out on vinyl.

The band always knows to surprise live, with re-takes of 'older' songs and switches in instrument position. At the same time the oeuvre has become so broad, that the set can be dreamy and lo-fi the one night, and very loud and intrusive the other, but most of the time at the exact sweet spot right in between.

Hugs of the Sky is a real live-experience. As early adaptors of the neo-psychedelic wave of the 2010's, they don't see themselves as a reaction on their North-American or Oceanic counterparts. They were there all the time. After 9 gigs supporting The Sisters of Mercy on their EU tour, Hugs of the Sky will continue on their own tour with 6 dates in France and the UK and take halt in Brighton's The Brunswick together with locals Rokurokubi.

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.”
