'Rising' - Artist Showcase

Rising is all about live bands who are going places. We put on Rising shows every few months, and we hand-picked only the best acts. We are not about cramming in as many artists as possible in a short space of time. We are selective, and we are proud of it.

Each show is a proper night out, full of energy, undeniable talent, and a real platform for grassroots growth, hosted at WaterBear The Venue on Brighton seafront.

This is about giving the right bands the support they deserve as they step into the wider music world. Many are currently studying at WaterBear Music College, some are alumni, and some are simply the strongest emerging acts coming out of Brighton.

We welcome a range of genres, but the key is balance. Nothing too chilled, nothing too intense, just the right energy, the right atmosphere, and a night you will remember.

Great talent, cheap entry, and a brilliant night out.
