The Cove in Fairlight

15/06/2026

Every gig has its' own character. I love that. It's mostly shaped by you, the audience. Each time I've played The Belgian Cafe in Eastbourne has been a bit different and an absolute pleasure. So thank you for that! Last Friday was fun x
Onwards...
This Thursday 18th June from 6pm I'll be doing my singer-songwriter thing down at The Cove in Fairlight, guesting for the fabulous Jason McNiff. It'll be a lovely pin-drop vibe I'm sure 🙂 They do great food, so no need to skip dinner! I hope you can make it.

Settle in upstairs at The Cove for a Friday evening of painting, socialising, a drink and a nibble if you fancy...

Paint & Wellbeing, run by Dawn Borthwick, requires no experience or know-how, just a desire to unwind after the week with a paintbrush in hand and see where it takes you. Resources are all provided.

"I kept thinking about how many people say “I can’t paint”, “I was always told I was no good at art” or I" haven’t picked up a brush in years", and I wanted to change that."

A great chance to begin or renew your journey into painting 🎨 You can find Dawn's website, instagram, and email on the poster. Please book a ticket by emailing [email protected]
