MELTING VINYL PRESENT: 

Seadog + Special Guests

We regret to inform you that Herman Dune can no longer play his show at Komedia, Brightonon Tuesday 21st October, due to a bereavement in the family.

Tuesday will now be a donation only event with a musically similar local line up, including Hayley Savage the original support.

The proceeds will cover the local bands and promoters costs and a donation will be made to MVT and AIP live trade bodies.

Please keep your tickets, as they will still be valid for a potential rescheduled date, and please stay tuned for updates about the rescheduled Herman Dune Brighton gig.

We hope to see you at the show, and thanks in advance for supporting the venue and promoter. Our thoughts are with David (aka Herman Dune) at this difficult time.


New line-up:

Seadog is the Brighton-based dream pop project led by musicians Mark Benton and Tom Chadd. Blending lush melodies with anthemic electric and acoustic textures, Seadog crafts songs that drift between lullaby and anthem, weaving influences into a rich tapestry of sonic storytelling.

M Butterfly – after playing solo for a decade M. Butterfly has evolved from the last stand of a desperate man to a last stand of 2 desperate people. Country & Slowcore.

Hayley Savage is a songwriter and guitarist blending folk and Americana with rich vocals, storytelling and intimacy.

DJ Matt Finucane is a Brighton musician known for his distinctive style that blends elements of post-punk, grunge, and art-rock.

What people are saying...

A big Thank You to Poppy, the manager, and the rest of the team at ABBA Gold last night. She was super helpful with me and my friend, who is in a wheelchair, and made it a fantastic night that we both really enjoyed. We hope to be back again soon.

As someone who works in the live music industry, I can honestly say Komedia is one of the best mid-sized venues I have visited. It has a wonderful atmosphere, outstanding acoustics, and a team that clearly knows how to run a venue. The Great Escape is always a highlight of the music calendar, and Komedia was one of the standout venues for me this year. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Brighton, whether for live music, comedy, or other events. A truly excellent venue and one of Brighton’s cultural gems.

The team working with us on Saturday were brilliant – special thanks to Steve, our engineer, who was fantastic.

I love the venue and am grateful to you for having me back!

Staff were all very friendly and welcoming… the sound and lighting were brilliant and a great evening was had by all attending.

Great intimate live music venue. Not your usual gig beers, good selection of Lager, Cider and Ale.

I wanted to say a massive thank you for hosting my son and I in the Studio. I was so impressed by the kindness, efficiency, and professionalism of all the team at Komedia. Everything was perfect – the sound, the room, and all of the staff.

It was honestly the best concert experience I’ve had in a long time! Since being chronically ill, I’ve never felt completely welcome at venues. […] Komedia made me feel completely comfortable and confident in myself during the whole show! […] Although I traveled from London, I will most definitely be returning when I can, choosing it over London venues!

Lovely, intimate venue. Great sound system. Perfect for small concerts.

What a superb venue. I have been several times. Always a warm welcome and a safe space to enjoy the artists that are more “left field” than other more mainstream venues.

Cracking little venue, intimate, great acoustics, friendly staff, middle of town, nice beer selection, fair prices.What more could you want?

Great place to see bands. Not too big . Not too small. Excellent views plus TV screens in all areas. Disabled parking in the street behind. Good eateries locally after gig.
