Pete Fij + Special Guests

Pete Fij + Special Guests sobe ao palco a 22 de outubro de 2026, Green Door Store, em Brighton.

Renowned for his unmistakable voice and wry lyrical touch, Pete Fij(alkowski) makes a welcome return with fresh solo material - unveiling songs that brim with melody, wit and understated charm. Pete first burst onto the scene in the early 90s as the frontman and guitarist of post-shoegaze / pre-Britpop band Adorable, whose 1993 album Against Perfection, released on Creation Records, is regularly referred to as a lost indie classic. After, he joined up with his brother Krzys to form the One Little Indian band Polak (Swansongs 2000 / Rubbernecking 2002), which took in influences from the likes of Sparklehorse, Radiohead and dEUS. There followed a musical exile, after having what Pete now describes as ‘a musical breakdown’ before re-emerging alongside celebrated House of Love guitarist Terry Bickers. “After years of singing downbeat songs of melancholy and loss, after waving goodbye to a long-term relationship, after working at a care home during the Covid pandemic, after seeing people off from the platform of life as a Funeral Celebrant, I decided to have a reset.” Slinging back on the electric guitar, ditching the job, upping the BPMs, and falling in love again has resulted in Pete embracing his fuzzed-up dream-pop past but also throwing in elements of pop and electronica. SUPPORT: Synthpop duo Battery Operated Orchestra make highly charged electronica with incredibly addictive melodies, blending post-punk energy, DIY spirit and irresistible pop hooks.
