Description

Rosie Brown and her posse of extraordinary musicians return to The Brunswick for the last date of their October mini tour.

Celebrating the release of DETAIL FROM A DREAM, the fourth studio album from singer-songwriter Rosie Brown and Bernd Rest (guitarist, co-writer, producer/arranger), this gig will feature the full band, which includes longstanding musical accomplices Simon Russell (bass and voice), Paul May (drums), Robin Hopcraft (trumpet and flugelhorn) ? plus a super-special and rare appearance by keyboardist Markus Marageter (who has been with them from start, but is not usually in the UK).

Weaving folk, jazz and blues influences, with glimpses of Nick Drake and vintage John Martyn, the band is at the height of its powers, and DETAIL FROM A DREAM expresses a musical sensibility all of its own. Drawing on country, ?60s surf and classical, this is beguiling and intricate music, filmic, funky and fragile.

?A slice of hallucinatory Americana? Brown?s world is inviting, deftly summoning musical ghosts ? like the Aladdin-Sane style flourish of All Around the World.? * * * * Mojo

?Classic contemporary folk with eclectic embellishments? pulls at the heartstrings with regret-tinged hypnotic refrain.?
* * * *RnR Magazine

?I?ve been absolutely knocked out by this? Superb. It?s kind of a mixture of folk and jazz, but it?s impossible to describe. I am genuinely lost for words.? Frank Hennessy, BBC Radio

?Absolutely gorgeous.? Pete Jones, Radio Reverb

?Beautifully built songs? Only a step away from the long-gone West Coast coolness of Crosby, Stills & Nash.? At the Barrier

?Just haunting? Wonderfully melancholic.? Wah Wah 45s

This show will feature songs from the new album, plus some choice favourites from the earlier acclaimed albums:

?Elemental, sensual?evocative of Les Paul backed by Goldfrapp? * * * * Q

?Ethereal... entrancing? Independent

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.”
