View all →About This Event
Penelope Isles make their return to Brighton’s The Hope & Ruin on Saturday 31 October 2026, marking their first live performance in three years. Originally from the Isle of Man and now firmly rooted in the city’s shingle and shoreline, the band have spent the intervening period apart, releasing solo records, forming new projects, and allowing old rhythms to break apart. This show finds them reconvening, their sound shifting between sunlight and shadow, built on the pull of shared history. The evening is presented by Love Thy Neighbour and begins at 8pm. Tickets are available via the venue’s website.
Love Thy Neighbour Presents; PENELOPE ISLES
Hailing from the Isle of Man via the uncomfortable shingles of Brighton beach, Penelope Isles resurface – shimming in sunlight and shadow.
Three years since their last show, life has quietly reshaped everything. Two solo records released into the world, new bands formed, old rhythms broken, and a magnetic pull back toward each other that couldn’t be ignored – Penny Isles’ sound remains unmistakable-fuzz-drenched, melody-rich, and charged with feeling.
Now expanded into a true three-piece with drummer Joe Taylor, Penelope Isles sound bigger, looser, and more alive than ever. Guitars shimmer and collide, harmonies ache and lift, drums crash like eerie weather rolling in fast off the coast. The Wolter siblings write songs like postcards from somewhere just out of reach – Brighton seafront flats, off-kilter restaurants, memories half-burned in the sun. Beautiful, fragile, and always on the edge of slipping away.
Still obsessed with love, heartbreak, and what lingers after, Penelope Isles are at their most open, luminous, and unsteady. And everything feels like it’s moving again. + support This is a 14+ show. Children under the age of eighteen (18) will be permitted on the premises only when accompanied by an adult e.g. someone over eighteen (18) years of age. No children under the age of eighteen will be permitted to remain on the premises after 23:15. We operate a Challenge 25 policy so please bring ID to prove your age.
