The Big Push
Chalk, Brighton
22 May 2026
Formed on the streets of Brighton, The Big Push transformed raw pavement performances into a global phenomenon. What began as a group of friends chasing the joy of live performance has evolved into one of the UK’s most compelling acts.
The Big Push built their following from the ground up — fuelled by explosive live energy, chemistry and unwavering conviction. Their viral busking street performances have amassed millions of views worldwide, turning a once passing crowds into a devoted international audience, and elevating them to the most recognisable busking band in the world.
Translating that same street-born intensity to the stage, the band quickly sold out shows across the UK, including headline performances at London’s O2 Academy Islington and The Brighton Dome. Their sound — a vibrant blend of alternative rock, soulful melodies, and infectious grooves that’s captures the raw honesty and unpredictability that first drew fans to their street sets.
Three years on from their 2022 hiatus, The Big Push has returned renewed and redefined. In the years between, the members ventured outwards — writing, releasing solo projects, achieving a UK No.1 album, and travelling the world in search of new sounds and inspiration. Now, they’re bringing it all back home: reunited in the studio with new music, hard-won perspective, and the same chemistry that ignited their rise.
Whether performing on a Brighton street corner or in front of thousands, The Big Push remain defined by their chemistry, charisma, and connection — a band that doesn’t just play for an audience, but with them.
