This week we’re on the scout for new music…

Sugarscape is taking a trip down to the sunny shores of Brighton this week to discover the adventures at The Great Escape Festival…
The three-day music festival – that runs from 15th-17th May - aims to bring the best in and up and coming talent from around the world to Brighton’s buzzing centre.

Kate Nash burst onto the music scene after she played at TGE
Pop princesses Kate Nash and Adele both shot to fame after playing at the festival – we wonder if we’ll discover the next Miss Nash at this year’s festival extravaganza?
To make sure, we will be scouring the streets checking out a series of secret gigs not allowing ourselves a moment’s shut-eye. All in the attempt to bring to you the most exclusive interviews, coolest gossip and sneak previews to the latest and greatest music. Hotly tipped acts this year include Ebony Bones and White Lies…watch this space!
