Formal Sppeedwear

If you have been keeping an eye on the local music scene, you might have noticed that Formal Sppeedwear has a date booked at The Green Door Store later this year. They are scheduled to perform on 25 October 2026, with the doors opening at 19:30. It is a bit of a shift from their appearance at the Brighton Psych Fest earlier in September, as this show is a standalone gig rather than part of a larger festival lineup.

For those unfamiliar with their sound, the band is often described as a 'wonky new wave' act. Their style draws from a mix of influences, specifically referencing the sounds of Yellow Magic Orchestra, Neu, and DEVO. It is the kind of music that tends to attract people who enjoy alternative, experimental waves, and it fits well within the intimate setting that The Green Door Store usually provides for these types of shows.

Regarding the logistics, the official Visit Brighton page lists the ticket price as 'TBC' for the moment, though there is an active link to book tickets online through AXS. Since it is a ticketed event, it is worth checking that link if you are planning to go, as it will likely have the most up-to-date information on availability and pricing as the date approaches. It is a straightforward setup: a band playing a venue they are well-suited for, on a quiet autumn evening in Brighton.
