Brighton's DUST hosts Tokyo Tea Room

Hailing from Margate, Tokyo Tea Room began to take shape when guitarist and songwriter Dan Elliott relocated from Brighton in 2012 and formed friendships at university. • Their music is characterised by its dreamy sound, with bluesy guitar, smooth-jazz touches, and psychedelia, drawing comparisons to iconic vocalists like Hope Sandoval and Harriet Wheeler. • The band's discography includes their debut EP Dream Room, released in 2019, followed by No Future Plans in 2022, and their debut album No Rush in 2025, with their second album Feel Forever dropping in September 2026. • With a monthly Spotify audience of about 1.3 million listeners and over 34 million streams of their track If You Love Her, Tokyo Tea Room's popularity is on the rise, having completed a sold-out debut tour of North America and gaining support from BBC Radio 1, Radio 6, and BBC Introducing.

Tokyo Tea Room will be performing at DUST in Brighton on Thursday, 19 November 2026. Tickets are with the button beside the article.
