Dylan LeBlanc

Dylan LeBlanc plays A L P H A B E T on Sunday 29 November, with support from Last Living Cannibal. It's a headline show for the Louisiana-born singer-songwriter, who's built his name on a particular kind of fingerstyle guitar work and a voice that sits somewhere between a country croon and a folk lament.

LeBlanc's sound is a blend of Americana and indie-folk, and the guitar is always front and centre. He's known for intricate, carefully picked lines that carry the melody as much as the singing does, and the two together give his songs a quiet, focused feel. It's the kind of music that works best when you're actually listening to it, rather than having it on in the background.

Opening the night is Last Living Cannibal, the solo project of songwriter and producer Allister Kellaway. His sound is a different beast entirely, built from broken electronics and distorted guitars, so the two acts should sit side by side without blending into one another. Kellaway's work comes from a production background, and that shows in the way he treats sound as something to be pulled apart and put back together.

Between the two, it's a night that moves from LeBlanc's Americana-folk to Kellaway's electronic textures. The show starts at 7:00 pm at A L P H A B E T, 11 Dyke Road, Brighton BN1 3FE. Tickets are £22.00 via See Tickets UK and £20.30 via DICE.
