Boris live in Brighton

Experience Boris live on October 16th

Boris, the Japanese experimental rock band, is scheduled to perform at Concorde 2 in Brighton, United Kingdom on October 16, 2026. The group’s music defies easy categorization, evolving significantly throughout their career since forming in 1992. Initially rooted in drone and noise rock heavily influenced by bands like Melvins, Boris has explored diverse sonic territories including shoegaze, sludge metal, psychedelic rock, and even pop sensibilities – often within the same album or even song. Their discography is characterized by extreme dynamic shifts, lengthy instrumental passages, and a consistent exploration of texture and volume.

Concorde 2 is a prominent independent venue located on Madeira Drive in Brighton. Originally built as the Brighton Sports Centre in 1994 for the city’s bid to host the 2000 Olympic Games, it was repurposed as a live music venue in 1995. The space has a capacity of approximately 600 and is known for hosting a wide range of both established and emerging artists across various genres.
