» Music Highlights: Tuesday 14 to Monday 20 September

Mammoth Fest
25+ rock and metal bands play across two stages at the inaugural Mammoth Fest, created at an opportune time what with the recent demise of the Engine Room. Such beauties as Entombed, Mnemic, Divine Chaos, Beholder, Furyon, Lithurgy, This Means War, Funeral Hag and the rather excellent Breed 77 will provide the loud, heavy, crunching sounds for your delectation.
Saturday 18 September, Hove Town Hall

Skurvefest
15+ local punk bands hold court at this new two-dayer. Local outfit Skurvi have seen fit to organise this, and a good one it is shaping up to be what with the music of The Asbo Retards, Bitter Emergency, The Barracks, OIZ II Men, Atombuzz and The Liabilities amongst those who aim to get you pogoing until you drop. Plus beer, hay, frivolity and all the other things you might expect at a small festival such as this.
Friday 17 & Saturday 18 September, Coombe Farm, Lancing, www.skurvfest.co.uk

Caitlin Rose
Nashville-born singer whose debut album Own Side Now has been reaping loads of praise, and which draws upon her love of female greats such as Linda Ronstadt, Stevie Nicks and Patsy Cline. Expect a beautifully wrought, emotional rollercoaster of a ride complete with wry vocal drawl from this exceptional talent.
Tuesday 14 September, Latest Musicbar

Music and Freedom
Billed as ‘an evening of free thinking and optimism, music and words’, Music and Freedom: Imagining Beyond Consumer Capitalism is an intriguing event put together by local musician Kit Ashton, and featuring artists with something to say, including Mark Chadwick (The Levellers), Chris T-T, Thomas White (Brakes), contemporary classical performers CoMA Sussex, and speakers such as our new Green MP Caroline Lucas, actor Ralph Brown, Brighton Solidarity Foundation and author Mark Fisher.

» Brighton Lights 31

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record. Guy does crazy-golfing with them, checks out their sound-check and witnesses the fans' adoration of the band at Audio in Brighton. In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk

We have 11 special programmes, featuring artists in their own houses. So here’s your chance to go ‘through the keyhole’ so to speak as we visit the artists in their own environment.
