Westside Cowboy

If you have been keeping an eye on the local music scene, you might have noticed that Westside Cowboy is heading to Brighton later this year. The Manchester-based four-piece band is scheduled to perform at Chalk on December 1, 2026. This show is part of their largest headline tour across the UK and Europe to date, which follows the release of their second EP, So Much Country 'Till We Get There, back in January 2026.

The band, consisting of Reuben Haycocks and James Bradbury on guitar and vocals, Aoife Anson O'Connell on bass and vocals, and Paddy Murphy on drums and vocals, has been carving out a specific sound. They describe their style as 'Britainicana', blending country, traditional music, and early rock 'n' roll, often focusing on vocal harmonies. Their profile has grown steadily, particularly after winning the Glastonbury emerging talent competition in 2025 and touring alongside acts like Black Country, New Road.

For those planning to attend, the venue is located at 13 Pool Valley, Brighton, BN1 1NJ. The event is scheduled to run from 18:00 to 22:00. Tickets went on general sale on April 1, 2026, following a pre-sale period in late March. You can find them through standard platforms like AXS and Ticketmaster. While some sources currently list the ticket price as 'TBC', it is worth checking the official channels directly rather than relying on third-party resale sites where prices can fluctuate. It is a straightforward setup for anyone interested in catching a band that has been gaining traction in the indie and Britainicana circuits over the last year.
