This summer we’re excited to be hosting The Nest Collective for a series of fireside concerts at Hawkwood.
Join us and rediscover one of life’s simplest joys – the sharing of live music in the glow of a campfire. In the simple way that people have done for thousands of years, we’ll be coming together around the fire to enjoy music, food, drink and the company of others.
Friday 24 June 2022
The Nest Collective present Bird in the Belly, a Brighton-based folk collective consisting of folk-duo Hickory Signals (Laura Ward and Adam Ronchetti), alt-folk singer-songwriter Jinnwoo (Ben Webb), and multi-instrumentalist and producer Tom Pryor. Together they have collected little known and forgotten lyrics, poems and stories from around the UK, and set them to their own “hypnotically original compositions” (fRoots).

Friday 22 July
The Nest Collective present Gasper Nali who plays a Babatoni – a 3 meter, one-stringed, home-made bass guitar – with an empty bottle and a stick. And makes the most beautiful and catchy original afro-beats possible.
Gasper is a one-man-band, with the Babatoni bass guitar, cow skin kick drum and very catchy tunes. He is absolutely unlike anything else. It’s super Malawian roots, it’s very up beat and incredibly danceable! – or – as a Bandcamp fan nicely put it: “Gasper is a one man party! It’s completely impossible to stop moving – and just as impossible to stop smiling!”
“His music is simple but joyous, and totally infectious” * * * * – Songlines
