28 May Brixton Windmill | 22 Blenheim Gardens SW2 5BZ tickets

The annual Brainlove Festival at Brixton Windmill is a selection box of weird and wonderful music from all corners of the underground, this year with Snipe as a media partner. The headliners are impassioned Scottish three-piece Meursault; from Manchester come the psychedelic guitar swirls of Patterns. From Leeds come indie-pop quartet Bear Driver and Brainlove Records’ breakthrough artist Napoleon IIIrd, who’ll play his entire Christiania album with a full band and live visuals by Broken Pixel. Norwich lo-fi star Mat Riviere will play a special set with cellist Oliver Barrett, and Pagan Wanderer Lu will preview what’s to come on his next album for the first time. Special guests are Bastardgeist from Chicago, and Kreatiivmootor & Multiphonic Rodent, who come all the way from Estonia to show off their wildly creative works. And there’s much more besides… an unmissable day for the sonically curious.
