Track of the week: Ady Suleiman - 'Been Thru'

We love Ady Suleiman at Tigmus, and his debut record Memories has been a permanent fixture in our headphones since its release earlier in the year. Ady has been hard at work and is putting out some acoustic tracks, the second of which, Been Thru, is our track of the week this week! If you like what you're hearing, check out his website for live dates - he's got a UK tour coming up in March, taking in the likes of Nottingham, Brighton, Oxford, London and a few more.

This week, our gig of the week is a bit of a biggie, as Public Service Broadcasting take on London's iconic Royal Albert Hall at the end of a run of Welsh tour dates this Thursday (1st Nov.) With tracks from their three brilliant studio albums and the brand new White Star Liner EP in tow, it's sure to be a brilliant evening in this historic venue, and a show we've been looking forward to for a while! General tickets sold out for the show very quickly, but there are a few tickets for the choir seats remaining on the venue website - a unique view of a pretty astounding venue!

Track of the week: Catgod - 'Sleep In'

Following a busy Summer of shows, including a slot at last weekend's Ritual Union festival in Oxford, our friends Catgod are back with a brand new tune, Sleep In, and it's our track of the week! Always fans of experimenting with new sounds, the group, which focuses around brother and sister duo Robin and Cat, have allowed the flute to take centre stage on this release. It's a slow-burning, dreamy track, and the harmonies of the duo are as beautiful as ever. You can download the release through their Bandcamp here - keep an eye out there for new Catgod t-shirts too!

Track of the week: Low Island - 'Hot Air'

Our friends Low Island recently shared their first full length release. It's not an EP, but not quite an album, more a collection of tracks (an anthology of sorts) from the past couple of years of the band. It's a glorious selection of tracks, with lots of our favourites, and features brand new tune Hot Air which we're making our track of the week! Honestly - if we could make the whole of Low Island 17-18 our track of the week, we would... check it out on Spotify here

Track of the week: Richard Walters - 'Porcelain'

It's that time again... our track of the week this week comes from Oxford's own Richard Walters with a cover of Moby classic Porcelain. Richard's beautifully soothing voice is perfect for the season and we've long been fans of his music, and he's made the track his own in this cover. If you like what you're hearing, check out Richard's A.M. record from 2016, it's a stunner!

Gig of the week: Fil Bo Riva at Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen (3rd Oct)

At Tigmus we're a big fan of Fil Bo Riva. We caught him playing a set in the basement of a hotel on the Brighton seafront at last year's The Great Escape festival, and completely fell in love with his music. His unique tone and honest lyrics combine to create a really beautiful set of songs, notably those from the If You're Right, It's Alright EP from 2016. In the run up to the release of his debut record which he's been working on for the last couple of years, FBR has released a number of singles this year, including Time Is Your Gun which you can listen to below. He's on a European tour and plays his only UK headline show at Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen this Wednesday (3rd). It's our gig of the week, and with Hilang Child in support it's sure to be a wonderful evening! Grab tickets for the show here.
