Queer

QUEER(JOY) is a celebration and showcase of LGBTQIA+ artists from the Brighton scene and beyond, with each event focusing on a different creative space, this one being live music!!! Our aim is to create a space for LGBTQIA+ people to come together, find community, and enjoy and appreciate queer art(ists) with one another.

Expect nothing but good vibes and exceptional and eclectic music, with the space then turning into a dance floor for a closing DJ set playing all your faves.

KalBells

Hailing from Brooklyn, NY, Kalbells will be bringing their cheeky lyrics, warm & dreamy bedroom pop moods, and deep funky bass lines to our first QUEER(JOY) gig!

Kalbells sprouted as the solo writing & recording project of Kalmia Traver (Rubblebucket). Over the course of 2 albums and countless performances (including a Tiny Desk concert and tours opening for Chrome Sparks & Lake Street Dive) the act has become an all-star groove collective comprised of Kalmia [she/they], Angelica Bess [she/her] (Body Language) and Sarah Pedinotti [she/they] (Liptalk).
