Early Ghost have long been one of BringhtonsFinest’s favourites. We first saw them perform at the Drill Festival 2014 and we were very impressed. The Psych-Folk 6 piece came onto our radar after they released the glorious sounding ‘Everything Goes With It’. The Brighton / London band…
Interviews
Bernholz – Interview – 2015
Bernholz is a solo Electronic artist, who has played with a variety of Brighton bands previously including Duke Raoul and Great Pagans. Jez Bernholz started his own solo project using a mix of casio syths, sequencers and digital samplers to mould an experimental pop sound with artistic ideas. His…
This Is The Kit – Interview, April 2015
This Is The Kit is a arguable Britain’s best folk outfit. With every album, I am more amazed and mesmerising by their folk rock sound and the provoking nature of their songs. I was lucky to see their remarkable show at the Green Door Store for Brighton’s Willkommen Records, where…
Spit Shake Sisters – Interview – 2015
When Spit Shake Sisters first began making music their sound was quite aggressive and punky, which then became more of a floaty psych sound with rhythmic jamming. Now they have combined the two in a refined sound, and having heard their new single I can assure you they are…
Tigercub – Interview – 2015
Renowned for their fierce live show, Tigercub are the band you want to see if you’re looking for a mental half hour of headbanging and smashing into one another. They have already gathered a strong local following with outstanding performances, and it seems like rest of the country are…
Great Pagans – Interview – 2015
Great Pagans formed in Brighton in 2012, a project formed around frontman Alex Painter, co-founder of the Anti-Ghost Moon Ray collective. Their smooth ethereal vocals and beautifully layered post-punk indie pop sound has definitely impressed us at BrightonsFinest following the first listen of their self-titled debut EP in 2012.
Josefin Öhrn + The Liberation – Interview – 2015
Josefin Öhrn + The Liberation are the queen of stoner pop in Sweden. For a band that is still relatively in its infancy, only having an EP and two singles, they have quickly made a name for themselves in what is mostly a male-dominated psyche scene. Their mesmerizing sounds…
Cessna Deathwish – Interview – 2015
Cessna Deathwish are a band well and truly in their infancy. George McCanna (vocals/guitar), Alex Cockburn (guitar), David Harding (bass) and Jack Greenwood (drums) came together at BIMM College to create an indie folk that is reminiscent of the Bright Eyes. I met the lads after an extremely impressive…
The Slow Revolt – Interview 2015
BrightonsFinest first came across The Slow Revolt (aka Joe Miraza) at the Drill Festival in 2014. From then on we have not been able to stop playing his Soulful Electronic beats in the office. Tracks like ‘Never Get Close’ and ‘The Dark Matter’ have a timeless mystic feel to…
Kassassin Street – Interview 2015
Kassassin Street is a band definitely on the way up, having already gathered a very strong local following. Their brand of psychedelic pop-rock is a very likeable cocktail indeed, and judging by the reaction of the crowd at a special show at Worthing’s St Pauls Church, they continue to…
