Get ready, Brighton! A night of raw energy and electrifying indie rock is heading your way as the acclaimed alternative outfit, Clutter, descends upon the iconic Prince Albert on 5th November 2025. Mark your calendars for a mid-week explosion of sound that promises to shake the foundations of one of the city’s most beloved grassroots venues. Famed for their visceral live performances and a sound that blends gritty alternative riffs with undeniably catchy indie melodies, Clutter are set to deliver an unforgettable show right in the heart of Brighton. This isn’t just a gig; it’s an essential experience for anyone craving authentic, unadulterated rock ‘n’ roll in one of the UK’s most vibrant musical cities.

About Clutter

Clutter emerged from the fertile West Midlands music scene in the late 2010s, quickly establishing themselves as a band unafraid to blend the abrasive with the melodic. Their sound is a potent cocktail of post-punk urgency, alternative rock grit, and indie-pop sensibilities, drawing comparisons to early Foals, Bloc Party, and the raw energy of IDLES. They carved out a niche with their debut EP, “Static Bloom,” which featured the underground hit “Concrete Veins,” a track lauded for its driving basslines and poignant, observational lyrics.

Their full-length album, “Urban Echoes,” released in 2022, solidified their reputation for crafting intricate guitar work and anthemic choruses that resonate long after the final note. Songs like “Lost in the Labyrinth” and “Flicker & Fade” became live favourites, showcasing the band’s dynamic range from introspective verses to explosive, communal singalongs. Clutter’s lyrical themes often explore urban alienation, societal pressures, and the search for connection, delivered with an intellectual edge that belies their raw performance style.

The current lineup, featuring charismatic frontman Leo Vance (vocals, guitar), the intricate fretwork of Maya Singh (lead guitar), the driving rhythms of Ben Carter (bass), and the powerhouse drumming of Chloe Davies, has forged a formidable live presence. Their chemistry on stage is palpable, transforming each performance into a high-octane spectacle. They continue to evolve, with recent singles hinting at a more experimental, yet equally impactful, direction that promises an exciting future for this British quartet.

This iconic venue is instantly recognisable by its striking mural of deceased music legends adorning its exterior, a colourful tribute that speaks volumes about its deep roots in musical culture. It’s a beacon for live music enthusiasts, celebrated for championing grassroots talent and hosting an eclectic mix of genres.

The Prince Albert boasts a capacity of around 150-200, making it one of Brighton’s most intimate venues.
