Your guide to what’s on in Brighton this week

The world has gone from the dawn of summer to the depths of winter in a week. Global warming is a true nightmare, and the world is falling apart at the seams. Amidst the chaos live music endures. This week Brighton is packed full of folk, hip hop, afro beats, punk, and good souls raising money for humanitarian efforts in Ukraine.
