Ain’t Dead Yet: Joshua Ray Walker’s Triumphant Return to London
The Lower Third is an odd venue, not because of how it looks or where it sits, but because of how it feels. Tucked just off central London, easily reachable by tube or on foot, it hides itself away down a set of stairs at the back of the building. What waits below is a room that feels more like an indie nightclub than a traditional live space. It is low-lit, compact, with tucked-away seating and enough room to hold around 200 to 250 people.
We Let Love In! Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds In Brighton’s Preston Park

Thee Sacred Souls Bring Timeless Soul To A Sold-Out Somerset House Summer Series 2026
There are few places in London quite like the Somerset House Summer Series. As live music settings go, the historic courtyard strikes a near-perfect balance between festival atmosphere and city convenience.

Instead, it’s a quick Tube ride home after an evening of world-class music.

Garbage Celebrate Three Decades Of Defiance At London’s Roundhouse
Thirty years into a career built on challenging convention, Garbage arrive at London’s Roundhouse looking anything but content to trade on nostalgia. Despite three decades of touring the capital, tonight marks the band’s first appearance at the iconic Camden venue, and from the moment Shirley Manson, Duke Erikson, Steve Marker, Butch Vig and touring bassist Nicole Fiorentino step onto the stage, they perform with the urgency of a band still determined to push forwards rather than look back.

Full Circle At O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire: Lifehouse Return To London In Intimate Acoustic Triumph
There are gigs that simply entertain, and then there are gigs that transport you. Lifehouse’s long-overdue return to London at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire is very much the latter. Eleven years since their last visit to the capital, Jason Wade and longtime guitarist Steve Stout strip everything back for the second of two London acoustic shows—following the previous evening’s performance at nearby Bush Hall—and in doing so remind a packed Shepherd’s Bush Empire exactly why these songs have endured for a quarter of a century.
Metallica Double Up For A No Repeat Weekend At London Stadium
