ROSIE BROWN BAND

Event information

ROSIE BROWN BAND will be performing songs from their latest release, DETAIL FROM A DREAM, and a smattering of choice classics from their earlier acclaimed albums. Weaving folk, jazz and blues influences, with a twist of country, ‘60s surf and classical, this is beguiling and intricate music - filmic, funky and fragile.

Rosie Brown (voice and guitar); Bernd Rest (guitar and voice); Simon Russell (bass and voice); Paul May (drums); Markus Marageter (keyboards).

Support from newly-formed Brighton trio WHO OWNS THE SNOW (featuring Loretta Rest on voice and cello amidst a saturnalia of three-part harmony), plus a set from very special guests Elliot, Grace, Hal, Joe, Loretta, Quincy to open up the night.


Praise so far for DETAIL FROM A DREAM:

“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

“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 favourites from the earlier acclaimed albums:

BY THE BLUE - “Superior musical minds following their hearts” * * * * Mojo
CLOCKS AND CLOUDS - “Elemental, sensual…evocative of Les Paul backed by Goldfrapp” * * * * Q
STRANGE RECOLLECTION - “Ethereal... entrancing” Independent
