3 Madeira Drive, Brighton
Mischief is going coastal!

To kick start the new year off in true MISCHIEF style we've got a massive bag of goodies for ya, all set on the lovely shores of Brighton Town.

Round one of the fun brings you a evening of tropical-mashup-mayhem-good-fun-old-times!

Right now ya lucky buggers, we present to you Mischief’s Coastal Parade!

Taking the usual fare of Erisian at the Volks off on an acuminous tangent this is a full on, early start, allnighter of an experience comprising the sweatiest festival BANDS and upbeat nocturnal BEATS. For maximum enjoyment and entertainment value you'll want to make sure you're there right from the get go. Follow us on this path of badly penned prose and discover why...

*** TRAGIC ROUNDABOUT ***

Trad, gypsy, space buccaneering madness

If Django, Jimi Hendrix, Mitch Mitchell, Batman, and a person that would be represented by Scope met Dawn French in a bar one night and had an orgy, this would be the offspring.
Presenting for your ongoing delight, the only living example of truly magical raging space tranny whores to be accompanied by some mean accordion &
speed trumpeting magic.

*** CALICO JACK ***

Pirate gypsy folk band (who btw. actually live on boats - they're not just blagging it with a fake hook and plastic parrot ya know)

*** BUFFALOS WAKE ***

Brighton’s very own swing gypsy folk with a mishmash of everything good.

*** THE UNDESIRABLES ***

Possibly an undesirable presence back at your mum's place but a more than welcome addition round here. CircoSinistre graced them with the apt title of ‘BREW SOAKED STREET FOLK’ which describes them perfectly if you ask us.

In amongst, between and possibly over that lot you'll also be assuaged by probably the best band change overs ever from the legendary FUKRAG MCGINTY who'll be spinning a cheeky selection of gypsy, swing, hip-hop, funk, soul, punk, and whatever else stems from the depths of his magical satchel.

Obviously that's just for starters... next we'd like to introduce you to the fandabbydozy of a lineup of supporting beats n bass that Mischief will be playing host to on the very same evening. Should the above shindig not of been enough to tickle your taste buds the second half of the night descends into a more rawkus affair with a cacophony of beats that'll keep you going till dawn.

*** BALKANIZE ***

Balkan Bass music at it's finest!

From prohibition era speakeasys to eastern european folk music, everything that once made a good party is mis-appropriated, reworked and revamped for the ambrosial delectation of the modern discerning gentleman.

Expect STD ridden electro swingers, big balled showtime remixs and frenetic paced gypsy n bass belters.
