Blues rock gig by These Wicked Rivers performing their 'The Acoustic Road Trip' set at The Hope & Ruin in Brighton.
These Wicked Rivers play The Hope & Ruin on Saturday 21 August, their set titled The Acoustic Road Trip. It's a blues rock gig, and the title gives you a good sense of the format: stripped back, acoustic, and built around the songs rather than the volume.
The venue is The Hope & Ruin, 11-12 Queens Road, which sits above the Hope pub. It's a room with a capacity of 150, and it hosts a fair mix of local and international live acts alongside poetry nights and late-night sessions. There's a bar inside with alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, including their own Mosaic Pale Ale, and a bar on the ground floor that works well for a drink before and after the music. The place stays open until midnight from Sunday to Wednesday and until 2am from Thursday to Saturday, so there's plenty of time to linger if you're not heading straight home.

The Acoustic Road Trip is the focus of the night, and it's These Wicked Rivers on their own. The set starts at 19:00, and with the room holding 150, it's a proper small-venue show.
