Mok - Brighton for Peace - Concorde II - 17.08.14





Mok's set ran for around 40 minutes from just after five. And they, quite simply, smashed it, rapidly filling the main hall from the bar overspill as people quickly realised that here was a band seriously worth a listen.

Smoke Fairies - Brighton - 4 June 2014

Words won't do justice to the final leg gig of the 2014 Smoke Fairies tour at Sticky Mike's Frog Bar - Brighton - last night (4 June). So here's the pics...





Suffice to say that the fifth time of seeing this very talented duo from Chichester, West Sussex didn't  disappoint. Tunes old and new from all four albums plus a couple of new ones. Roll on visit six - we'll be there.

Mok busk Brighton

Friday 9 May 2014 dawned with bright sunshine. Just as well really, as this was the first of Mok's two days of Brighton busking as an alternative to the Alternative Great Escape music festival.
Featuring a varied selection of both back-catalogue remixes and new material, Mok wowed the crowds at a selection of unplanned street locations across Brighton. Excellent stuff.
Catch Mok live at The Haunt, Brighton, 31st May 2014. Tickets still available but selling fast. £6 on the door or £5 in advance from www.wegottickets.com.
