Event information

JAVELIN (Brookyn, NY)
We're very pleased to say we have nabbed one of the hottest new bands in Brooklyn on their only day off from supporting the mighty Yesayer.
Debut UK headline show. We're excited..and who wouldn't be with an outfit that can seamlessly drop dropping crooked disco, schoolyard funk, abstract R&B and pitch-perfect pop in the same set (and sometimes the same song).
'(Javelin) turn their random eccentricities and dollar bin gold into first-hand art.' - Pitchfork
'Javelin approach the crate digger's aesthetic in much the same way their formidable forebears (Avalanches, RJD2, Beck) have, adding a personal flair to well-worn classics and (more often) obscure diamonds in the rough' - Coke Machine Glow

RIVAL CONSOLES
Thrilling one-man party machine on the Erased Tapes label.
'revives the schism between the commercial house music of suburban hell-holes and the perverted beats of electronica's golden boys. A massive slice of jagged grandiosity... 'IO' is a party record even snobs can enjoy' - NME

SMALLGANG
Sounding something like Johnny Cash fronting Sonic Youth or Smog's Bill Callahan holding his own in front of Dinosaur Jr, anyone who loves exciting and intelligent rock music will find something to love in the repertoire of Smallgang.
