Description

A & M studios in California was the birthplace of many timeless classic albums. In 1971 Joni Mitchell?s Blue and Carole King?s Tapestry, which were recorded in adjacent studios while just down the hall, James Taylor was recording Sweet Baby James, and the three friends shared session players and added harmonies to each other's albums.

Here at The Brunswick in February 2022, Lucy Pickering and her band Court & Spark will recreate the best of Joni and Carole, in an evening of Laurel Canyon highlights such as Carey, You?ve Got A Friend, River and I Feel The Earth Move.

Lucy Pickering?s Court & Spark was originally conceived to celebrate and explore the songs of Joni Mitchell, bringing together some of Sussex?s finest musicians in a fruitful jazz/folk/pop fusion collaboration. Lucy?s vocals at the piano perfectly pay tribute to the singer-songwriter stylings of the early 1970?s, and the band add a West Coast vibe recalling Pat Metheny, Jaco Pastorius, Russ Kunkel and Tom Scott?s LA Express. This gig will move audiences who already love these two iconic artists, as well as inspiring those discovering them fresh today.

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.”
