This year we are hosting an Opening Party for the festival with Audiotrope – our sister organisation focused on helping local musicians.
Our Director Tina Morris is now co-chair of 1066 Music City so with her co-chair Hannah Deeble from Hastings Fat Tuesday, we bring you this night of free live music and more.
From 8pm we have the Coastal Currents Opening Party but arrive at 7pm for the 1066 Music City Networking event if you are a music professional.
The line-up is really exciting with the Message From the Ravens who recently blew everyone away at Green Man Festival with Steve Lamacq hailing them as the best of the festival. Plus Kid Cruise straight back from supporting Greentea Peng in concert. Look at the rest of the lineup below which also supports local young musicians such as Bad Pedestrian and Florescent and also had long standing Audiotropers Harry Osborne in his new incarnation as 3 piece band Chimer and Reshad Rahman who brings the rest of his musicians for a night of unavoidable dancing.
This is all happening at The Pig on Grand Parade in Hastings on 1 September, so get yourself down there and grab a copy of our festival brochure or navigate the art and culture via our online map at coastalcurrents.org.uk
