Lovingly compiled and packaged, Willkommen Collective: Volume 1 is a broad cross section of the many faces of the Willkommen Collective. The fourteen tracks include exclusives from our more well known acts (The Leisure Society, Sons of Noel and Adrian etc.) as well as the wonderful selections from our lesser known bands, all in beautiful silkscreened card digipacks for a very low price. The CD is available in shops now as well as directly from us.

Everyone involved in The Leisure Society, Sons of Noel and Adrian, Shoreline, Laish, The Miserable Rich and Kopek is unbelievably excited about tonight’s show at the Union Chapel. This is just a last minute reminder: you can still buy tickets here or there will be some on the door. It’s going to be very memorable.

The enthralling Pete Roe joins The Leisure Society, Alessi’s Ark et al on our overflowing Willkommen micro-festival bill. Pete is an amazing multi-instrumentalist who plays banjo and piano with Laura Marling, guitar techs for Maccabees and recently toured in support of Mumford & Sons. He has a unique guitar style which somehow sees separate bass, rhythm, lead and even percussions lines simultaneously flow from just two hands.

He’s an amazing performer and a great addition to the line-up. More information about the event here and tickets available for just £12 here.

We are delighted to announce that Willkommen favourite Caroline Weeks has joined the lineup for our exciting Stanmer House show. She joins The Leisure Society, Alessi’s Ark, Peggy Sue and Sons of Noel and Adrian in what is shaping up to be the best gig we’ve ever put on. Caroline Weeks is an extremely talented singer songwriter and some time member of Bat For Lashes, with whom she recently toured France. This is a special appearance ahead of her tour of America. There are more acts still to be announced.

Over half the tickets have already flown out of the door so buy quickly. You can get them from wegottickets.com here or from Resident Records in Kensington Gardens, Brighton, 01273 606312.

Top online magazine thelineofbestfit.com is running an exciting ongoing feature on Willkommen in the run up to our extravaganza at the Union Chapel on Friday.

There is already an audio interview with The Leisure Society’s Nick Hemming plus live mp3s from last time Sons of Noel and Adrian played the Union Chapel a year ago. Plenty more to come from Shoreline, Laish, Kopek and more.

There are a few tickets still available for the Union Chapel show here. Don’t miss out, it’s going to be absolutely extraordinary.
