Willkommen take over Stanmer House, Sunday July 5th with Peggy Sue, Caroline Weeks, Alessi’s Ark, The Leisure Society, Sons of Noel and Adrian and more…
With summer time in full swing and the bucolic, bohemian climes of Brighton as enticing as ever, what better way to maintain the Pagan solstice – i.e. continue celebrating the good times – then by attending a solemnisation of sonic sorcery at Stanmer House?
A ten minute stroll from the University of Sussex and set in the heart of the Sussex Countryside, Stanmer House is a beautifully restored, stately home built in 1722. It’s regal but inviting and warm – the perfect environment for the Willkommen Collective’s mini festival.
Taking time off from recording their debut album in the States, Peggy Sue will be joined by the whimsical and wonderful Alessi’s Ark. Willkommen’s homegrown goodness will also be in effect. Critically acclaimed and Ivor Novello nominated orch-pop wunderkind, Nick Hemming, will be bringing his Leisure Society whilst the multi-tentacled psychedelic, prog-folk mothership, the Sons of Noel of Adrian will cook up a heady, heavy stew of soulful sounds. Nice.

Such a shame I’m doing the Chimes and Bells gig on the same night elsewise nothing could keep me away from this!
I’ve bought a ticket and am really looking forward to this but I can’t find details of what time it starts and finishes anywhere.
Please could you email me with start time, as above. I have two tickets!
