Nights Out

Last night kicked off what's bound to be a regular routine for us over the next month... jumping on our bikes {me in 6 inch platforms ha!} and riding to one of Brighton's many live venues to catch a band. We're thrilled to be covering what's fast becoming a leading festival for new music, The Great Escape. We're simply lucky it's happening in our own backyard... and seeing how we first met at a music festival {Sasquatch} years ago, we're going to be back in our element.  Of course I'm thrilled to seeing all the Canadian acts {Handsome Furs, Woodhands , PS I Love You, Braids}, but mostly we're looking forward to discovering some new favourites. Last night we caught Metronomy {also playing Great Escape}. The packed house and number of people yelling 'my friend used to live across the road from you' had local band written all over it. Although some members have moved on from Brighton, they made sure to let us know which songs {most of them} were inspired by this place. Over the next few weeks as we figure out our festival itinerary {and of course what I'm going to wear} we'll be sharing what acts we've got on repeat at the old Cocoon!
