Freebutt, 21 August
After playing Great Escape earlier in the year, mightily-bearded Pennsylvanian William Fitzsimmons returns to Brighton. The singer makes the kind of softly voiced melodic pop-folk beloved of American television show producers and has a back story that the writers of One Tree Hill might easily be tempted to pinch. Brought up by blind parents who later divorced, Fitzsimmons started out as a mental health therapist before switching careers to become a full time musician and is very much a 21st century word-of-mouth MySpace sensation.
