Sometimes with all the hustle and bustle of modern day life it’s essential for one to simply step back, relax and be at one with your natural surroundings. Enhance your inner being by embracing nature and mindful music genres that include the likes of nu-classical, folk, and gentle electronica.
Sounds appealing doesn’t it!
It turns out that Sussex based live music promoters, Melting Vinyl are thinking along these very lines and have put together a brand new one day event going by the name of ‘Melting Sundown’, which will give attendees the chance to experience awe-inspiring music artists in a truly stunning rural location. This being One Garden which is located to the rear of the main house in the idyllic Stanmer Park on the Brighton & Hove city boundary.
The new event will be taking place during the late summer evening of Saturday 19th September. In addition to the music acts there will be an outdoor bar and an open marquee.
Let’s meet the handful of acts performing at the inaugural ‘Melting Sundown’ evening:
Pillow is a Brighton-based modern classical outfit performing the dark and cinematic compositions of composer and multi-instrumentalist James Osler.

She was once singled out by Jude Rogers of the Guardian as an “experimental delight” and a highlight of Cambridge Folk Festival, and once she moved Shirley Collins to tears with an unaccompanied song.
