What's going on right now?
Following the huge success off the Hopes and Dreams and Side Character In My Own Life albums,
Better Than The Book plays "Ten Years On": its debut LIVE show on 5/2/2026 @ The Hope & Ruin, Brighton!
On Thursday 5th February 2026 after 14 years being purely a studio project, my ska punk project Better Than The Book finally made its LIVE show debut at The Hope & Ruin in Brighton in celebration of Ten Years On from the debut full-length album Two Years On! It was an unforgettable night of ska, pop-punk and alt-rock supported by Brighton's very own Look What Happened and LUVD and included an amazing cameo (and LIVE debut) from long time friend of BTTB/Jabun, Swedish Rapper, Bob Axell AKA Cyberdevil!
For those who couldn't make it or want to relive the moment, we managed to capture the FULL Better Than The Book LIVE set on Sam's Phone (The Sam-CAM)! This video is a single camera with raw camera audio, BUT we've been collecting various clips from people at the show and also managed to get the FULL MULTITRACK RECORDING from the sound desk so there will be a Hi-Fi LIVE album and more LIVE videos coming later this year!
