It's been quite the year for Oxford's Self Help - they've played at festivals like Common People and Truck, released their debut EP, scored a number one track spot in the Nightshift Magazine round-up of the year among lots more shows, radio plays and the like! They're not stopping just yet... they've got a few shows left before the year is out, including a show at The Bullingdon on 21st Dec with Lacuna Common, and they just shared brand new single Get On With It from an upcoming EP. We're digging the track so much we're making it our track of the week! Get listening.

Gig of the week: Cosmo Sheldrake at EartH Hackney (29th Nov)
We're big fans of Cosmo Sheldrake at Tigmus, so we're making his London headliner this Thursday at EartH in Hackney (previously the Hackney Arts Centre) our gig of the week! With support from I See Rivers and performing tracks from his wonderful debut album The Much Much How How & I it's sure to be a wonderful evening of live music. His set supporting Johnny Flynn at the Roundhouse last year was one of the best we caught all year so we're giving a big recommendation that you get along to this show! The last of the tickets are available here.

Track of the week: Harvey Causon - 'London Stock'
A quick read of his bio, and you'll learn that Bristol's Harvey Causon is "turning heads with his deft take on contemporary R&B, percussive electronica and powerful, brooding vocal that sounds far more world wearied than his 20 years." We've been really enjoying the beautifully soothing tunes he's put out this year, and his new track London Stock is no exception - so we're making it our track of the week!

Gig of the week: Jade Bird at Electric Brixton (21st Nov)
We shared her single Uh Huh a few weeks back, and have been really enjoying what we've heard from Jade Bird since. Because of that, we're making her show at Electric Brixton this Wednesday our gig of the week! She's heading out on tour tomorrow, and is taking Tigmus faves Ferris & Sylvester out on the road too, as if you needed any more reason to catch her live. Check out her latest single Love Has All Been Done Before and grab tickets for the show here!

Track of the week: Banfi - 'Marlow'
Our track of the week is taken from the new (ish) Banfi EP, The Marlow. Title track Marlow is a highlight for us, but we're enjoying the whole release from the London three-piece, who've given us tunes like Happy When You Go and June in the past. They're on tour in the UK currently, with a show coming up at London's Moth Club this Saturday - grab tickets for all the shows here!

Track of the week: Saint Clair - 'I'll Stay'
This new video from Saint Clair is so sublime that the track just had to be our track of the week... It's her latest single I'll Stay, performed live with a six-piece ensemble. The track is taken from recent EP D2 - listen to that here! The video, filmed at her Grandad's art studio and directed by her sister, was premiered by Fault Magazine with an in-depth interview which you can check out here.

Gig of the week: Christof van der Ven at Sebright Arms (6th Nov)
We loved catching Christof van der Ven opening for friend of Tigmus Adam Barnes back at the start of the year at his show at London's St Pancras Old Church. His album Empty Handed and recent live EP of the same name are both beautiful, and he's a wonderful performer, so we're making his show at London's Sebright Arms this Tuesday (6th) our gig of the week! Check out the album's title track Empty Handed below and grab tickets for the show here!
