Covers Band Hove
A Hassocks five-piece for Hove parties, pubs and halls. Not Brighton. Hove, actually.
Book the bandBN3 gets the Hassocks five-piece
Hove is the western half of the city of Brighton and Hove, a unitary authority with city status since 2001. Locals still treat it as its own town. George Street is the shopping spine. Church Road has Hove Town Hall. The seafront is quieter than Brighton's. Hangleton sits inland. Portslade is further west. A covers band in Hove has to work in that mix.
The Vests are based in Hassocks, West Sussex, on the Brighton Main Line. We will drive down and along to BN3. Five-piece, 90s Britpop, classic rock and indie anthems. Our own PA. Two 45 minute sets, or as requested. Price on request. We cover all of Sussex.
We play The Hassocks Pub and Mid Sussex Music Hall in Hassocks. If you want a covers band in Hove, send the date and the venue.

Hove, actually, from seven miles inland
Brighton and Hove merged in 1997 and took city status in 2001. The phrase 'Hove, actually' is older than the merger, and it is still the point. George Street, the lawns, Hove Town Hall on Church Road: that is the civic kit. We are a short run from Hassocks with a PA that fits a function room.
Rooms that suit us: pubs off Church Road, halls in Hangleton, hired spaces behind the seafront, marquees that can take drums. Portslade-by-Sea and Mile Oak are in the same city. If the postcode is BN3 or BN41, send it. Brighton bookings live on the Brighton page.
If your venue is a basement with a low beam, send a photo so we can check the kit fits.
