Live music

About the gig

Keywest plays The Hope & Ruin in Brighton on Thursday, 28 January 2027.

KEYWEST

Keywest is a popular Irish pop-folk band, formed by Dublin childhood friends known for energetic, crowd-pleasing performances that grew from busking on streets worldwide to selling out tours and topping Irish charts with platinum albums like The Message. Remaining fiercely independent, they blend folk, pop, and rock, achieving massive success and radio play before consciously returning to their busking roots, embracing independence to connect with fans and release music on their own terms, as seen with their recent tracks and album Speak for Yourself. + support 18+
