Give It Back

Hey, i've been going through the archive of photos and videos from The Rock House and found an amazing video which I just had to share with you.

The Rock House Band is an integral part of what The Rock House is, a chance to provide time on stage performing for those that usually don't have the opportunity, it is always 100% improvised and is always a great way to embrace the more chaotic, visceral and open nature of music from musicians with learning disabilities.

This video is from February 2012 and features Stephen Barnett on vocals and Sean Teague on guitar, supported by Tom Cook on keys and myself on drums. Sean sadly passed away five months after this video was filmed, he was a regular at The Rock House and is still missed, his guitar playing was some of the best i've ever seen and this video I think is a perfect example of that.

I hope you enjoy the video.

ROCK HOUSE : Halloween?!

Hi,

Apologies on this being a bit late... still recovering from the absolutely incredible and amazing Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät and Zombie Crash UK Tour... those of you that were at the gig in Brighton will know what i'm talking about when I say they were some of the best gigs i've ever been to!

Anyway, more of that another time! On to next week... The 46th Rock House, celebrating Halloween with as much Pop as we can handle!

It is on Tuesday the 15th of October at the Westhill Hall in Brighton.

The line up looks like this -
  • Beat Express opening up the night
  • There will be 2 sets from the Rock House Band, featuring Dedji & Richard Watson. If you know someone who just wants to turn up and play, this is the band to be in!
  • The Fuzz Flash Band returning again
  • Dancing Rock Queens will be making a welcome return. 
  • Catherine O'Rourke will be bringing her 80's pop vibe to the Rock House
  • The Hit Party Crashers will be there to get everyone dancing.All the details you need for the night are at the bottom of the email...

To get you in the mood for next week, here is a video of The Fish Police tearing it up at last month's Rock House!
