A strong week for forthcomings – some rain, too – in particular Nathan Bowles’ spiralling banjo music, the return of Chicago’s mighty Cave and Circuit Des Yeux’ reinterpretation of Catherine Ribeiro + Alpes’s witchy psych-folk. Some other returning favourites include Elvis Costello and Bryce Dessner, whose soothing windchime composition will hopefully keep you cool as the heat continues…

And apologies for the shameless plug, but don’t forget you can get the current issue of Uncut sent to you FOR FREE directly at home: here’s how.
