Twin Shadow

Sounding like a cross between Broken Social Scene and The National, up-and-coming newbie Twin Shadow make a welcome return to our shores.

The Walkmen

Tuesday 25th January

The Walkmen are back! With a new album and the same visceral high energy sound that's like The Strokes forming a bob-sleigh team with No Age and Deer Hunter.
