With Brighton Psych Fest on the way in August, the event has announced a special stage at Komedia, with five acts hand-picked by comedian Stewart Lee.
Stewart Lee has curated his very own stage at the inaugural Brighton Psych Fest.
At the Komedia venue on Friday, August 30, the comedian will be sharing his love for five acts that he personally hand-picked for the event, describing the selection as a “mind-melting day out of acid-hued action from five of my favourite acts”.
So, without further ado, those that have made Stewart’s intriguing cut are: The Bevis Frond, The Physics House Band, Alison Cotton, Eliza Skelton and Secluded Bronte.
“Brighton Psych Fest asked me to host and program a stage, which is reckless of them as the last thing I curated, the 2016 Prestatyn All Tomorrow’s Parties, went bust,” he jokes. “And no, I didn’t get paid either.
“Nonetheless, here’s a mind-melting day out of acid-hued action from five of my favourite acts, with minimal onstage interruptions from me. I’ve tried to skew the selection towards Brighton and Hastings talent because sometimes we don’t always acknowledge the geniuses on our own doorsteps.”
Elsewhere, Brighton Psych Fest will also feature sets by The Horrors, Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, NewDad, Juniore, bdrmm and many more.
