A Conversation On Ramsgate Music Hall With Mother Brain’s Lucy Foster
For this feature on The Sleeping Shaman, Lucy Foster – best known for running Mother Brain Promotions – has created a short film shining a light on the celebrated Ramsgate Music Hall. Blending her reflections with footage from around the venue, she paints a vivid portrait of life inside 13 Turner Street.
Known for its intimate atmosphere and adventurous bill of artists, the Ramsgate Music Hall has carved out a reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting small venues, and her insight offers a glimpse into both the space and the work that goes into bringing such distinctive shows to life.
She takes the time to reflect on the ethos behind Mother Brain, the challenges and pleasures of running independent gigs, and why spaces like Ramsgate Music Hall are so vital to sustaining underground and experimental music scenes. Her words are not only a celebration of a much-loved venue, but also a testament to the dedication, creativity, and community spirit that keep grassroots music thriving.
Lucywill soon be heading off on her travels for the next year, so we’d like to wish her all the best for the adventure ahead – and we hope she dusts off Mother Brain on her return. Now sit back, hit play below and let Lucyguide you through the spirit of Ramsgate Music Hall and Mother Brain.
