About Silly Goose
Silly Goose burst onto the UK rock scene a few years ago, quickly carving out a reputation for their explosive live performances and an unapologetic, high-octane sound. Hailing from the industrial heartlands of the Midlands, the quartet – comprising frontman Alex “Axle” Thorne, guitarist Chloe “Riff Queen” Davies, bassist Sam “The Groove” Miller, and drummer Leo “Thunder” Blackwood – have been relentlessly touring, building a loyal following with their blend of garage rock grit, punk-infused energy, and anthemic choruses. Their sound is both nostalgic and refreshingly modern, drawing comparisons to early Arctic Monkeys mixed with the raw power of Royal Blood.
Their debut album, “Feathered Fury,” released in 2023, was met with critical acclaim, spawning fan favourites like “Coastal Crash” and the mosh-pit inducing “Brighton Beatdown” – a track that, ironically, pre-empted their now-legendary Brighton shows. Follow-up singles such as “Urban Roost” have solidified their place as one of the most exciting rock acts in the country. Known for their intricate guitar work, powerful vocals that swing from melodic hooks to guttural roars, and a rhythm section that hits like a freight train, Silly Goose deliver a performance that’s as tight as it is wild. Expect them to be in peak form for this much-anticipated return to the south coast.
DUST: The Perfect Setting
Nestled in the heart of Brighton, at BN1 1NF, DUST stands as a beacon for live music enthusiasts. This iconic venue, a former industrial warehouse reimagined for sound, has played host to countless legendary nights and emerging talents over the years. Its unassuming exterior belies an interior that pulses with history and an undeniable rock ‘n’ roll spirit. With a capacity of around 600, DUST strikes the perfect balance between intimacy and scale, ensuring every attendee feels connected to the action on stage.
The venue boasts superb acoustics, designed to capture every nuance of a live performance, from the sharp crack of a snare drum to the soaring feedback of a guitar solo. Its raw, industrial aesthetic, complete with exposed brickwork and mood lighting, creates an atmosphere that is both gritty and electrifying – the ideal backdrop for Silly Goose’s unbridled energy. DUST is easily accessible from Brighton city centre, just a short walk from the main train station and various bus routes, making it a convenient destination for both locals and visitors. The venue is largely ground floor accessible, with accessible toilet facilities available, though it’s always advisable to contact DUST directly for specific accessibility requirements.
What to Expect at the Show
Prepare for an auditory assault and a visual spectacle when Silly Goose take to the DUST stage. Fans can anticipate a high-octane setlist drawing heavily from “Feathered Fury,” including the crowd-pleasing “Coastal Crash” and the explosive “Brighton Beatdown.” Expect to hear newer material too, showcasing the band’s evolving sound and hinting at future releases. Their reputation for unscripted energy means no two Silly Goose shows are ever identical, promising a unique experience for everyone in attendance.
The stage production at DUST, while not overly elaborate, is perfectly suited to the band’s aesthetic. Expect dynamic lighting that syncs with the music’s peaks and troughs, creating a visceral, immersive environment. The atmosphere will be electric from the moment the first chord strikes, with mosh pits likely to erupt in front of the stage and singalongs echoing throughout the venue. It’s a chance to witness a band at the top of their game, feeding off the crowd’s energy and delivering a performance that will leave you hoarse, exhilarated, and craving more.
