The Brighton Acoustic Session.

We meet on the first Monday of the month in the back room of the Lord Nelson,
a real ale pub 100 metres from Brighton Station.
We are proud of our policy of booking exclusively Sussex-based musicians.
The atmosphere is informal so if you’re a singer or musician
you’ll be guaranteed a floor spot before the main act of the evening.
We start at 8.30 and admission is free (with a collection.)


Monday February 6th
THE LEWES EXILES
Vic & Tina Smith have been at the very heart of folk music in Sussex since the 1960s, as performers and animateurs.
Currently running the highly respected weekly club at The Royal Oak in Lewes, as well as the annual Lewes Folk Festival,
Vic's Scots roots are evident in his and Tina's polished and faithful interpretations of songs from over the border.

They will be appearing with two of the other resident singers at the club, Will Duke and Dan Quinn.
Musicologists of the future will be particularly indebted to Will for his recordings of Scan Tester's tunes,
but he also renowned for his fund of hilarious parlour ballads, delivered with inimitable deadpan panache.

Dan's musical CV contains resplendent reviews of his most recent recording with "supergroup" Duck Soup's eponymous album
but his musical pedigree can be traced back to his days as a member of The Etchingham Steam Band, the Albion Dance Band, and Flowers and Frolics.
