“Gloriously unreconstructed comedy” Guardian German Comedy Ambassador Henning Wehn is a fountain of knowledge. There’s no shortcut to success, hard work will eventually pay off and there is no shame in paying tax. But what he knows bestest is that his comedy shows are a guaranteed success.

Tunng
“nu-folk-rock at something close to optimum...
performances which sparkle with spontaneity” Independent Bands as emotive and enduring as Tunng don’t come around too often. Across their decade together, the group have honed their pastoral pop to perfection, winning over audiences and critics one rustic twang of guitar, icy electronic echo and sumptuous whisper of vocals at a time to become one of Britain’s most championed underground forces – fitting for an act who began literally underground, in the basement of a Soho women’s clothing boutique some ten years ago. // Turbines [2013]: “a nuanced album” Guardian “warm, welcoming” Times Support: Pinunoizu. Involved but nonetheless ear-friendly listening that establishes deep, immersive grooves.

>> how to find us
// our address: 11a Upper Market Street, Hove, BN3 1AS // directions: From Brighton centre, follow Western Road towards Hove. We’re on Upper Market St on the left. TOM is 10-15 min walk from Brighton Clocktower. Buses stop at Co-Op Western Rd. We are within easy access of most bus routes and equidistant from Brighton and Hove train stations. // car parking: Spaces directly nearby are limited, so we recommend parking on the seafront pay-and-display or slightly further East at Regency Square Car Park, both marked below.
