Dom Haley selects his top three gigs for the week ahead;
Tuesday 6th August
White Heat’s 9th Birthday @ Madame JoJos
Bandages - Hot Hot Heat by MAJRdj
Celebrating nine years of new bands, awesome facial hair and £2 beers, White Heat bring together Lemonade and a host of special guest DJs to party like it’s 2003 all over again. Should be really messy.
Friday 10th August
Parakeet @ The Shacklewell Arms
Tomorrow / Paper, Scissors, Stone by Parakeet
A super-group made up of Yuck's Mariko Doi and The History of Apple Pie's James Thomas, Parakeet is a throw-back to the messy noise rock of the mid-'90s and sounds like straight cross between L7 and The Breeders.
Friday 10th August
NAS @ 100 Club
Nas Hip-hop is Dead by ItzBamWeezy
Widely regarded as one of the best MCs of his generation, NAS has ripped East Coast hip hop from the smooth-voiced pop stars and post jazz musicians and gave it back the rough-edged aggression of its early days.
