WIDE AWAKE FESTIVAL (London Brockwell Park, 25/05/24)

London's best outdoor festival returns once more with a smorgasbord of indie-rock delights. Particularly enjoyed the angular grooves of The Itch (born from the ruins of the excellent Regressive Left), Crack Cloud side-project Mock Media and fiery Atlanta hardcore punks Upchuck, and every festival should end with a shambolic Talking Heads cover session featuring Charlotte Adigery, Bolis Pupil, Faux Real, Special Interest, Model/Actriz, Los Bitchos, Lynks, The New Eves, BODEGA, Tapir!, Fraulein, Lambrini Girls, Sorry and many others.
