Me (Sarah Bolshi) and Rob da Bank’s new signing for Sunday Best ISABELLE METTLE blew everyone away over her two gigs at The Great Escape in Brighton one at Brilliant Caravanserai and one at Daltons. I am literally giddy with excitement.. spine tingling to watch her. She is most definitely bound for greatness. We have a fantastic plan for this incredible singer, songwriter and producer. Just 22 years old. Great things to come and and I am so excited to be working with her.
Single out last week “Head In The Clouds” already garnering lots of playlists.. Head to linktree in bio to have a listen..
Lovely to see Debbie Ward Steve Rowland Dean Marsh Chris Tofu and great to see such an immersed crowd at her first Brighton gig Big thanks to our top Sunday Best label manager for all her work over the weekend Paige Carr

Founded over 20 years ago, the band have performed with legends like James Brown, Fatboy Slim, and Prince and graced the main stage of many a festival. We are honored to host him ..
We are also very chuffed to host THE MAGIC MOD – Ben is a card magician and entertainer of huge esteem who can proudly count himself as a member of the exclusive Magic Circle fraternity. He has supported The Libertines, Paul Weller and The Brian Jonestown Massacre on tour with favalosa and very clever magical performances
AND finally.. we are proud to once again include TREVOR LAIRD (QUADROPHENIA) who returns as our Compere for the evening alongside MONTEFIORI COCKTAIL as musical accompaniment!
