Those rather nice people at Spinningchilli have announced that they are presenting an enjoyable evening of pop punk music with The Fallen Leaves in Brighton at The Prince Albert (which is located at 48 Trafalgar Street just below Brighton mainline railway station) on the Saturday 20th November 2021.
After a storming gig at The Green Door Store in 2020, (read our review HERE, and catch a teaser video of it HERE), The Fallen Leaves are all set to return to Brighton.
The band formed back in 2004 and their line-up features Reverend Rob Green (vocals with an English accent), Sir Robert Symmons (sniper guitar), Matthew Karas (Bohemian bass) and Brett Buddy Ascott (dangerous drums).
Interestingly enough, their guitarist Rob Symmons was a member of the original ground-breaking Subway Sect and drummer Buddy Ascott played with The Chords.
The Fallen Leaves perform a superb mixture of punk, mod, 60’s garage and beat, thus if you can imagine a cross between The Who and The Ramones, then you are part of the way there.
They have thus far released five albums: ‘It’s Too Late Now’ (2008), ‘That’s Right’ (2009), ‘If Only We’d Known’ (2013), and band’s last studio album came out in 2017 and is titled ‘What We’ve All Been Waiting For’ and it’s tracks are ‘Prodigal Son’, ‘I’m A Man’, ‘Lavender Girl’, ‘Funny World’, ‘Taking A View’, ‘All That Glitters’, ‘Promised Land’, ‘Motorcycle Girl’, ‘Good Man’. This was followed on 29th September 2019 by their 12 track live album ‘Maximum Minimum’ which was recorded at The Hope & Anchor.
Their vinyl albums and CD’s can be purchased HERE.

Support on the night will come from Cult Figures.
They released two classic singles on Swell Maps Rather Records back in 1979 and 1980, namely ‘Zip Nolan’ and ‘In Love’. Now they are back and feature Gary Jones (vocals), Jon Hodgson (guitar/keyboards/backing vocals), Barney Russel (guitar/omnichord/autoharp/stylophone), Lee McFadden (bass/backing vocals) and Stuart Hilton (drums/backing vocals). They have just released their new album ‘Deritend’ – check it out HERE.
The doors at The Prince Albert open at 8pm on Saturday 20th November 2021 for the concert and tickets can be purchased HERE.
