Mutations, a name that has become synonymous with creative brilliance and audacity in the world of music, is set to illuminate Brighton this November with its fifth festival edition. From 2 – 5 Nov 2023, the city will reverberate with some of the world’s most enthralling artists.
Celebrating diversity in the musical universe, Mutations Festival 2023 promises an eclectic mix of established stars. Plus there will be up-and-coming sensations, all assembling from various corners of the globe. Over the course of four resounding days, nine of Brighton’s prized Grassroots Music Venues will host these artists. The festival is an unmissable event in the city’s Autumn music chronicle.
But what makes this year’s edition of Mutations Festival particularly captivating is its intimate setting.
With a capacity limited to just 1,000, attendees are in for an unparalleled experience. The line-up boasts the likes of Fat White Family, Public Service Broadcasting. The line up also includes Django Django, Porridge Radio, The Staves, and many more. Venues such as Chalk, The Prince Albert, Green Door Store, and The Hope and Ruin are just a few of the iconic stages set to feature these performances.
The journey of Mutations has been nothing short of remarkable. Since its inception in 2015, the festival has constantly evolved. Each edition surpasses the previous in terms of creativity and exploration. Who could forget the audacious move in 2019 when the festival shifted to a mysterious venue on the city’s periphery? Or the record-breaking 2021 edition which marked its first-ever sell-out? The politically charged 2022 line-up only further solidified its reputation as a haven for alternative and post-punk acts. Now, Mutations Festival 005 is all geared up to continue its tradition of innovative and inspiring programmin. They are tantalizing not just the music aficionados, but anyone with a penchant for the uncharted and the extraordinary.
The masterminds behind this festival, concert promoters FORM, are no strangers to the music scene.
With roots in both Brighton and London, they orchestrate over 600 events annually. Their impeccable track record includes bringing global giants like The War on Drugs, Glass Animals, and Bonobo to Brighton. Their expertise extends to other grand festivals like Pitchfork London, Visions, and Wave.
As the days grow shorter and the chill of autumn sets in, Brighton will once again become a beacon for music lovers worldwide. Mutations Festival 2023 promises not just a musical experience, but a journey into the heart of what makes music so profoundly beautiful and uniting.
