Field Day Radio is coming live and direct tomorrow (Apple Cart follows the day after) and the line-up is very strong indeed. Tune in if you can’t make it to the festival and hear some of the action and some chatter (plus a very special cover on Paul/Franz Ferdinand’s show).
If you are at Field Day look out for the radio shows being made in a corner of our site!
Head over to the Field Day blog to see a Django Django Topman CTRL session exclusively! The band play Firewater and it makes for terrific viewing – including a genius bit of cardboard playing.

If you’re one of the latecomers to Rocketnumbernine we’ve got a fantastic treat to convince you that they’re worth checking out. We’re pleased to announce Caribou will be doing a special DJ set after Rocketnumbernine’s inevitably mind blowing display of talent at The Waiting Room this July! Believe it or not this showing is entirely FREE!
Order your ticket here while they last!
It may have felt like years since we’ve seen sun in London but these past days have been absolute perfection. Nothing goes quite as well as beautiful weather and a brand new Peaking Lights mixtape so why not listen along with us and forget the rainy springtime was ever here.
Be sure to catch Peaking Lights and Julia Holter reign in summer at XOYO next week!
We have a relaxing week’s worth of gigs to close off the end of May – so why not take advantage of the warmer nights and head out with us to enjoy some of the best music we can muster. Check for the schedule below…
Walls + Blue Daisy – Monday – Hoxton Bar and Grill
One of our favorite London acts Walls are continuing on their headlining stint around the UK with what’s sure to be a show-stopping performance. With equally hyped and talented Blue Daisy working the support slot this show is a true must-see.
Niki & the Dove – Monday – XOYO
Niki’s Malin may have been struck down with sickness which lead to a postponement earlier this month – but the powerhouse duo are back to shake us down with a showcase of their Swedish talent. A limited number of tickets are still available here. We suggest you get them while you can!
James Yorkston and the Athletes – Tuesday – Cecil Sharp House
Celebrating the 10th anniversary re-release of his seminal album Moving Up Country, James Yorkston and his band The Athletes will be preforming the record in its entirety. The chance to hear such an iconic album live is a rare gift we couldn’t be more thrilled about.
Field Day Pre-Show: Julia Holter + Guests – Friday – Cafe OTO
Critical darling and unbelievable talent Julia Holter makes her first of three London performances this week. With her hotly tipped second record Ekstasis still simmering on our turntables, we’ll be sure to catch Julia Holter every chance we can get. If you didn’t nab tickets for the pre-show in time – a dwindling few are still available for both Field Day and her supporting performance with Peaking Lights.
