Thursday 22 May (4pm–2am)
London's portion of the Dot to Dot festival sees a bevy of live acts and DJs take to five Hoxton-area venues for one memorable Thursday night. Though our fair city's line-up can't match the bigger names promised in Bristol and Nottingham (a rare occurrence indeed), we do get a chance to see some massive talents-in-waiting. Some highlights: Baltimore's epic noise sculptor Dan Deacon, Aussie krautrockers Pivot, Big Dada rapper Cadence Weapon and singer/songwriter Eugene McGuinness.
