Our favorite clubnight (okay, outside of Brighton’s Fish Fry) Communion (run by Mumford and Son’s Ben Lovett and Kevin Jones) are set to take over a buddy of NRBW’s venue, The Flowerpot in Camden, for a long run of shows later this month. The Flowerpot is probably the best venue in London, and only approximately 50% of the reson is because all shows are FREE! Communion Presents (the official name for this run of gigs in later July) are showcasing some of our favorite British acts including Brightonites Lyrebirds and The Agitator (they play every show together! geez!), Ojai’s Lissie and the ever fantastic great wonderful hilarious (Flowerpot owner!) Beans on Toast. These shows are not to be missed, and needless to say, roll up early – this shit’s gon’ get crowded.
The line up for Communion Presents is:
July 12:
Mt Desolation
Lissie
The Staves
James Moss
July 16:
Lyrebirds
The Agitator
July 18:
Beans On Toast
Handshake
Crowns
Hot Feet
Tom Mckean And The Emporers
Monument Valle

compilation :: communion
Thursday, January 21st, 2010
So Communion, if you live outside London or Brighton, is a monthly clubnight in both cities. Yeah, we know it originated in London, but I’ve never been to the London incarnation – I have been to the Brighton one twice and I know that it’s the best clubnight EVER. Don’t chalk that up to be NOT being a club person – or do, because I hate clubs yet I show up to this one. They consistently big up the best new acts in music, including King Charles and Lyrebirds recently…. And now they’re putting out a compilation featuring some of the better UK acts of the past couple of years…. I would recommend checking this shit out if you have no idea of the Communion scene…
Featuring: Johnny Flynn, Jay Jay Pistolet, Marcus Foster, Stokes William, Pete Roe, Broadcast 2000, Benjamin Francis Leftwich, Jeremy Warmsley, Brendan Campbell, Alessi’s Ark, Mumfor & Sons, Matthew and the Atlas, Alan Pownall, Elena Tonra, Beans on Toast, Kurran and the Wolfnotes, Peggy Sue, Andrew Davie, and more…
