Antony And The Johnsons at London Queen Elizabeth Hall, Fri 24 Jun

Review by John Brainlove

Watching Antony perform live, watching him wriggle on his stool and lean into the mic, his eyes closed and shoulders swaying, that angelic voice, dipping and soaring and carefully pronouncing every word, the intensity of feeling that he throws behind every note makes much more sense...»

Regina Spektor, Only Son at London Queen Elizabeth Hall, Wed 28 Jun

Review by ben marwood

She may be weary, but from the second she opens her mouth to sing the jazz a-capella of ‘Eight Miles High’, the audience hang off Regina Spektor's every word.»

J Spaceman at London Queen Elizabeth Hall, Mon 23 Oct

Review by Dan Cooper-Gavin

You’d be forgiven for suspecting that, after 20 years of blowing minds, traumatizing ears and shattering hearts with Spacemen 3 and Spiritualized, Jason Pierce might now have exhausted his ability to inspire, innovate and surprise...»

Evan Parker, Tom Jenkinson and Evan Parker at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Lambeth, Mon 16 Jul

Kathryn Williams & Neill MacColl at London Queen Elizabeth Hall, Fri 28 Mar

Fennesz at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Lambeth, Tue 21 Apr

Review by Chris Power

There's a palpable sense of excitement on London's Southbank this evening, as the time for more-than-a-record-label Touch's contribution to the Ether 09 festival approaches.
