Tour Story is a weekly round-up of London’s best upcoming live music and comedy events. Tickets for all of these gigs are on sale this week.
Die Antwoord
Brixton Academy
22nd June
A futuristic, (read out-there) rap group from Cape Town known for their unusual robes and Afrikaans rhymes, Die Antwoord make MF Doom look like the tamest thing ever. Having gone down a storm every time they’ve played London in the past, they make a welcome return to our shores to play the Brixton Academy in June.
Tickets are on sale now from £19.50
Danzig
Roundhouse
24th June
The original lead singer of the Misfits, founding member of Samhain, inventor of horror punk and all round alternative rock god, Danzig is celebrating 25 years in the music biz with a massive UK tour that includes a stop at the Roundhouse on the 24th of June. Best of all, he’s promising an all Misfits set!
Tickets are now on sale from £27.50
CSS
Hoxton Square Bar and Kitchen
13th May
It’s been a couple of years since we last saw São Paulo’s top indie dance outfit, but like the gift that just keeps on giving, CSS are back and are playing the Hoxton Square Bar and Kitchen on the 13th of May. Expect this one to be as riotous as ever.
Tickets on sale from Friday 22nd
Sean Hughes: Life Becomes Noises
Arts Theatre
30th May-1st June
Following a sell-out, extended run at the Tricycle Theatre, Sean Hughes has transferred his latest show ‘Life Becomes Noises’ to the West End’s Arts Theatre for three nights from 30th May to 1st June. The world-weary Irish comic's latest production is a poignant and funny hour about the recent death of his father, which sees him bypass all the cliches of 'the dead dad show' trend with aplomb.
Tickets are on sale now from £16
Terry Alderton: Season 4?
Bloomsbury Theatre
Saturday 4th May
If you still haven't had the chance to see Terry Alderton live, now is the time to do something about it! A uniquely brilliant physical comic, his shows are a captivating blur of hilarious improvisation, impressions, interaction and set pieces. Having appeared on Michael McIntyre's Roadshow, Dave's One Night Stand and Let's Dance For Sport Relief, he's back on tour this year with one London date lined up at the Bloomsbury Theatre in May.
