Howdy Lighthouse crew. I'm here to reveal details of all this week's events at Deal's own music and arts pub. Do come in for a browse.

Well, well, we have quite the week ahead! Lots and lots to get stuck into including a return to the stage from Cocos Lovers tonight (Wednesday) in a rare free entry festival warm-up show.

Also, the majestic ska and rocksteady sounds of Count Bobo this coming Saturday.

As Tom Waits once sang ... "come on up to the house."

MOLLY'S LIPS
(FULL BAND SHOW)

+ SUPPORT TBA

Wednesday 22nd August

Tickets ?8 in advance - available behind the bar and online ...



(Tickets ?10 on the door - subject to availability)


Molly's Lips (a.k.a. Billy Glinn and Phil Self of Cocos Lovers, The Hellfire Orchestra, Will Varley) have been working hard these past few years. Their first release was recorded in their kitchen and printed up totally by hand. They've stepped it up for this release; drafting in Joel Magill (Syd Arthur) to record it and getting stellar musicians such as James Gow (Knee High,
Lunch Money) and Raven Bush (Syd Arthur, Kate Tempest, The Gaslamp Killer) to play on it.

Along with the expected guitars, harmonies and strings this release sees the addition of reed organs, synths and live electronics to create a blend of atmospheric acoustic and electronic sounds.

THURSDAY 8th AUGUST
COCOS LOVERS
+ DIVERSE FREQUENCIES DJ'S
Doors: 7pm
FREE ENTRY

 

Cocos Lovers are set to grace The Lighthouse stage on Wednesday for a rare free entry show as a warm-up to upcoming festival appearances, including Celebration Days in France and the local (and awesome) Smugglers Festival.

Operating well beyond the remit of alt-folk, Cocos Lovers are a distinctive musical force, seamlessly channelling influences from Africa, the US Deep South and several other real and imagined corners of the globe, while staying ever faithful to their Kentish roots. Their music swells with powerful choir-like harmonies and glorious widescreen melodies, and they've earned a reputation for fantastic live performances with an ever-changing instrumental line-up of mandolin, acoustic and electric guitars, violin, musical saw, flute and a unique blend of drums and percussion.
    
The latest incarnation of their sound sees a healthy step into more electric realms, with their forth album set for release this Autumn.

Plus ? we'll be welcoming pre-show tunes from:
