Daudi Matsiko

Daudi Matsiko plays A L P H A B E T on Sunday 18 October, as part of their ongoing series of nights. He's a British-Ugandan singer-songwriter, and the set is billed as confessional folk, played acoustic. It's a solo show, so it's just him and his guitar on stage.

If you're not familiar with the name, the description gives you a good starting point. Confessional folk is that sort of songwriting that puts the lyrics and the voice right at the front, and doing it acoustic keeps the whole thing stripped back. It's the kind of gig that works best when you're actually in the room, rather than listening to a record.

The night is part of the A L P H A B E T cycle, so it's one of a series of bookings they've been putting together. Matsiko is the sole bill for this one, so there's no support act to work through first—the evening is built around his set.

It's on Sunday 18 October, starting at 7:00 pm at A L P H A B E T, 11 Dyke Road, Brighton BN1 3FE. Tickets start from £15.15.
