NME’s Secret Guests At The Haunt
Show: The Haunt 15th May Midnight
We’re putting on Radar shows every evening at our out’n’out favourite venue in Brighton, The Haunt. The bill has been handpicked and features the best breaking bands around. Deep breath…
– Courtney Barnett’s touring buddy Fraser A Gorman
– London DJ bros Formation
– Sydney trio Little May
– Former Late Of The Pier man Sam Dust (Eastgate)’s sublime new project LA Priest
– UK indie’s most messed-up and exciting new band Yak
– Canadian Velvets-obsessive’s Heat
– XL/Godmode Records wonderkid Shamir
– and Gengahr, who’s guitarist John Victor plays like he’s Graham Coxon’s surrogate son
Friday night at The Haunt, though, is one I’m particularly looking forward to – a mammoth seven-band bill comprised of America’s absolute best garage bands right now (The Garden, Bully, Wand), Copenhagen grungers Yung, all-girl London newbies The Big Moon and ‘the new Jamie T’, Rat Boy. Heading it up and playing at Midnight are a total a-list band who you don’t want to miss out on. In previous years, we’ve had Palma Violets, Fat White Family and Peace play this slot and every gig has been crazy. This year is our biggest band yet, so get down early.
