GDLI

God Don’t Like It have announced a brilliant lineup on on April 10th at Hoxton Bar & Kitchen to raise money for the Red Cross to send food, medicine and general aid to Japan.

Headlining is London via Japan super-band Bo Ningen - one of the best live bands in London over the last few years.

Then Merok’s Comanechi for a rare live show!

And then we have The Catcher Nine. The new band from Koichi from Screaming Tea Party and other friendly faces. This will be one of their first gigs.

Apart from minimal venue and band costs all the money will go to the Red Cross.

Tickets are available from Ticketweb for £7.50. These tickets are booking-fee free.

More names announced for Offset!


Three months until Offset and this year is shaping up to be our biggest yet, with some phenomenal additions in the form of Mystery Jets, The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster, Monotonix, Comanechi and many others.

Set deep in the heart of the lush Hainault Forest and taking place over the weekend of September 4-5, this year Offset is already boasting the likes of No Wave pioneers Liquid Liquid, critically lauded art rockers These New Puritans, white hot Sub Pop signings Male Bonding, legendary Krautrock innovators Cluster and Brooklyn’s singular purveyors of eerie, hazy electro Telepathe, among many others. To that distinguished first round we can now add London-via-Eel Pie quartet Mystery Jets, who look set to conquer the summer with their forthcoming brand new album, stocked full with shiny anthems-in-waiting. Also making a storming return to the live arena are the incredible psyche/garage heavyweights The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster, hot on the heels of their critically acclaimed new album.

Tearing up the stage – both literally and figuratively – will be the famously untethered Monotonix from Tel Aviv, who have been bowling over audiences from one end of the globe to the next with their wildly unpredictable onstage antics and furious brand of garage rock, as will Comanechi, the punk rock duo who produced one of the most acclaimed debuts of 2010, and Lovvers, who carry with them a well-deserved reputation as being an unmissable and ferocious live act. And on the dance side of things, returning electro pop juggernaut Ali Love will ignite the crowds with tracks from his long awaited debut album while Durrr’s Rory Phillips will deliver a masterclass in how to destroy the dancefloor with an undoubtedly propulsive DJ set. And true to Offset’s policy in spotlighting the best and brightest artists from across the world, Texan/London experimentalists Sh*t and Shine, and Parisian nutters 10LEC6 will be joining Graffiti Island, The Murder Act, Round, Flats and Oral Oral.

Once again, only the most compelling and groundbreaking in music and art, from the fresh to the classic, is offered at Offset – and this all-ages event is only 30 minutes from central London by tube to boot. Performances from over 200 artists will be joined by an all-new craft space and pop-up workshops, our eclectic vintage clothing market, organic and delectable foods from a multitude of cuisines, and even a Victorian fun-fair.
