Los Angeles’ Deap Vally headline a Communion show at The Sebright Arms on Monday night.

Busy week for gigs, this – Monday night sees behemoths The Killers and The xx both playing smaller than usual shows, at HMV Forum and Shepherd’s Bush Empire respectively, with the hyped Los Angeles female duo Deap Vally also worth checking out at The Sebright Arms. Australian poster boy / folk star Matt Corby is in town, gearing up for a European tour with a couple of London ‘club’ shows – the first is on Tuesday at Queen Of Hoxton, with our very own Israel Cannan and Roo Panes, and the second is at The Troubadour in Earl’s Court on Wednesday. The promising Will Heard plays a gig at Apartment 58 that night, and New York’s MS MR play their first ever UK show at Birthdays. The mysterious DIAZ are sure to attract many a curious observer at The Old Queens Head on Thursday, and the excellent Low Moon Low play their first full band gig for a while at The Borderline on Saturday night.
