Melting Sundown

Embracing nature and celebrating musicality that connects with our environment, this new festival, Melting Sundown, features profound, mindful genres including nu-classical, folk, and gentle electronica.

Melting Vinyl has curated a line-up of quality performers from Brighton and beyond. Pillow, Bella Spinks, Jo Burke, Fred Hills, Sophie Sirota. Pillow is a Brighton-based modern classical outfit performing the dark and cinematic compositions of composer and multi-instrumentalist James Osler. The music captures the richness of a classical tone whilst embracing the freedom of improvisation and storytelling of haunting folk-like melodies. Bella Spink is a singer-songwriter, composer, and choir leader, sharing songs and stories inspired by the human condition. Jo Burke's heartfelt performances of traditional songs that explore some of folk’s darker themes, crafted and reimagined in her own unique voice. Her creative work also spans folk theatre and multi-disciplinary collaborations. Jo founded the Brighton Folk Choir. Fred Hills is a Sussex-based songwriter and drummer Fred Hills creates instinctive, emotionally driven music nestled amongst cinematic instrumental, alt-folk and reflective indie. Sophie Sirota is a Whitstable-based artist who runs her own electronica collective events. MV have Spirit of Gravity electronica nights to thank for bringing her to our attention. Her music is a bold blend of ambient soundscapes, viola, and electronic vocal effects.
