Orchards

Born from Brighton’s diverse musical breeding ground, Orchards are among the  city’s brightest rising stars. Comprised of lifelong friends Sam Rushton (guitar)  and Dan Fane (bass/vocals), who met vocalist Lucy Evers within their first week  at university, the band are a resplendent mix of summer melodies and stellar  hooks that threaten to be stuck in your head for days. Combining left-field  experimentation with driving Indie-Rock startlingly prescient Pop sensibilities,  Orchards have been described as a “glittery gateway drug”, with a sound that is  inherently positive, charming, shimmering and above all else, fun.
