Mad About Rock

Following a huge debut year last September, Breakout Festival is back and ready to bring rock back to the shores of Brighton! The first and only outdoor heavy rock festival in the city will return to the Brighton Racecourse on September 26th 2015. Early bird tickets will be unleashed this month and you better grab a ticket before it’s too late as you won’t want to miss out! The first announcements will follow shortly after. Aspiring musicians will again have the incredible opportunity to share the stages with headlining artists via the headliners choice scheme and a public vote, details on that to come soon.

Photo by Me - Taken after interview I caught up with Ollie (singer/programmer) and Andy (guitarist/backing vocals) of electronic metal band, Collisions who hail from Brighton UK, at the return of Brighton's dedicated Metal festival, MammothFest 2014. So they discuss Mammothfest and it's importance to Brighton, along with another new Brighton Festival, Breakout Festival, which they are due to play on the 27th September 2014 and their upcoming new album which is due for release at the end of this year..   Ok we are here today at MammothFest, So hailing from Brighton, how important do you think the rebirth of MammothFest is for the Brighton and South East music scene, especially as your from Brighton? Ollie: I think it's really great for the scene, there hasn't been an incredible amount on I personally feel, really sort of going on for rock/metal really recently, so it's really nice to see something actually happening and taking place. Well behind Steve...
