Last Christmas we gave you our hearts...


These are December's top picks for live music London.

Monday 6th – Wednesday 8th

Interpol @ Brixton Academy

A band who seem to be getting bigger and bigger every time they visit, Interpol have shrugged off line-up changes and constant touring this year like they we're mere speed-bumps on the way to post-punk glory.

7th December
Dirty Projectors @ Koko

Definitely one of the hottest tickets in town, Brooklyn glitch-cum-reggae-cum-rock titans Dirty Projectors play their critically acclaimed 2005 album ‘The Getty Address’ in full.

17th December

Gallows @ The Electric Ballroom

Always delivering on the promise of a good-natured punch up, Gallows take the stage at the Electric Ballroom for their annual Christmas show.

22nd December
Slow Club @ Union Chapel

For the third year running, Slow Club play a special Christmas show at the Union Chapel. At last year's show, the twosome ended with an encore of Christmas themed songs, which are sure to get everyone in the festive mood.

31st December

Strange Days @ Hammersmith Apollo

Featuring Shellac, Factory Floor and the mighty Sonic Youth, ATP’s Strange Days is the New Year’s Eve Party to end all New Year’s Eve parties.
