MJ Lenderman, The Garage, London, November 18
This might be Jake Lenderman’s first show in London as a solo artist, but there’s a laconic ease in the way he commands the stage. Lenderman has played the city before with his band Wednesday, but 2024 has seen him break through as a solo artist thanks to his acclaimed fourth LP Manning Fireworks, and this is the first of two sold-out dates at The Garage (when he returns to London in June, it’ll be at the bigger Electric Ballroom).

Send us your questions for Gary Kemp!
For many years, Gary Kemp was known primarily as the guitarist and chief songwriter for Spandau Ballet, architect of ubiquitous ’80s hits such as “True” and “Gold”.

Michael Kiwanuka Small Changes
During his first decade as a recording artist, Michael Kiwanuka did so much to expand his musical parameters and upend expectations of what he ought to do and ought to be, that he most definitely earned the right to be a little more measured about his moves. In other words, smaller steps and gestures can reap as many dividends as the grander ones.

Robin Pecknold, Levon Helm Studios, Woodstock, New York, November 14, 2024
Robin Pecknold confesses a case of nerves after taking the stage — or the rug, to be more accurate — in Levon Helm Studios, a rustic space in the woods of Woodstock. He blames his mood on the moment: this is the first full-length, fully solo show he’s ever done, the start of a nine-date solo mini-tour crossing North America. Yes, there had been A Very Lonely Solstice, the 2020 pandemic livestream-turned-LP, in which his solo arrangements were abetted by a white-robed, socially-distanced choir. But tonight he is on his own, with five acoustic guitars and a pedal board, though...
George Harrison Living In The Material World 50th anniversary edition
The rebirth of Richard Alpert is one you can imagine George Harrison being more than a little envious of. Born in Boston, Alpert was an associate of Timothy Leary and deeply entrenched in the American psychedelic counterculture of the ’60s, until he returned after a protracted stay in India reinvented as Ram Dass, a spiritual guru set on popularising eastern teachings in the west.

City To City: Introducing Laurence Jones
In partnership with Marshall Laurence Jones was thrilled when he was sent his first Marshall amp after turning professional at 17, but soon realised he needed to send it back. “It was too loud for the size of venues I was playing,” he grins. “I asked Marshall if they could hold on to it until I’d made it into bigger venues. A few years later, I got in touch with the same guy at Marshall and said I was ready to have it back.” Advertisement THE REVIEW OF 2024, NICK CAVE, ALICE COLTRANE, ELVIS COSTELLO, KRIS KRISTOFFERSON, CASSANDRA JENKINS...
Introducing the Deluxe Ultimate Music Guide to King Crimson
Neurosurgeons scream for more… As you’ll discover in this deluxe and expanded Ultimate Music Guide, when we speak of King Crimson, we’re really speaking of Robert Fripp, the guitarist and sole member to have lasted the 50 years of the band’s lifetime. So warm is his greeting, so insistent his use of one’s first name, you could come to think you and Robert Fripp were pretty well acquainted even though you have only met on a video call a few times. Advertisement He can be wonderfully candid. He will speak very movingly about fallen band members like John Wetton,...
