I am delighted that Brave Rival have asked to return to the Haven Club. They love playing The Bullingdon and we love having them! Five years on and Brave Rival are now a fast-rising, rip-roaring, rock and blues juggernaut ready to take their place in the upper echelons of British Rock Hierarchy.
Since their inception in 2019, Portsmouth based Brave Rival have delighted fans and critics alike with their modern take on classic rock vibes. This culminated in the release of their 2022’s debut ‘Life’s Machine’ featuring a dozen nuggets of sharp melody and emotive playing, topped off by the delightful, hypnotising interplay of co-vocalists Chloe Josephine and Lindsey Bonnick. ‘Life’s
Machine’ drew strong praise across the board, also bringing the group, completed by guitarist Ed ‘the Shred’ Clarke, bassist Billy Dedman and drummer Donna Peters, to the attention of the American guitar superstar Joe Bonamassa, who rated them among his “favourite discoveries” of that year.
2024 will see the release of the band's hotly anticipated sophomore album Fight or Flight, taking elements of their debut album and cranking it up several notches. This mind blowing album is set to take the world by storm when Brave Rival hits the road this Autumn with a relentless tour schedule. With comparisons to the Wilson sisters from Heart, as well as legends like Zeppelin and Fleetwood Mac, the DNA of the aforementioned bands flows through Brave Rivals veins. This year the band wants more of everything. It going to happen. Just watch!
GET LOOSE opened for Corky Laing in May and got such a great response that I've asked them back!
This will be a great night - 2 fab bands!
