Feline1

Feline1 is a Northern Irish musician living in Brighton, Sussex, UK. He owns too many analogue synthesizers and has ginger hair. His main influences are Yukio Mishima, the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, and that time when Kenny Everett's bum grew bigger and bigger until he floated up to the ceiling and blew up.
He used to be in a moderately unsuccesful band called The Feline Dream, and is currently the personal live sound engineer of 2-girl 1-boy Brighton electro-racketeers, Miss Pain. From 2007 to 2009 he played boards of keyness, cello, bass guitar and backing vocals for Brighton band Hollow Moon.

The Mountain Firework Company

four guys who at one time or another worked in the same bar - the legendary "sidewinder" in brighton UK came together over heartache and wine to create what's been described as "gorgeous folk/alt-country pop - equal parts darkness and cheeky humour" and "a unique mix of swamp-folk and alt country blues" one guy left to drink and follow a woman, two more sorrowful drunk guys joined, and then a third to make six, between them having 36 strings - that's a lot of strings

Terry Garoghan

There's is no better person to lead you through the streets and suburbs of Brighton than the self appointed Unofficial Mayor himself. Terry carries the whole show single handed, for this is his affectionate tribute to the place where he was born and bred. The local paper called it "brilliant and witty". It is also a big bellylaugh in a naughty seaside postcard kind of way. Quintessentially Brighton is Brighton the Musical.
