Summer holidays and festival season mean that August tends to be as quiet as January for gigs. But there's still plenty to see - including five excellent gigs all on one day. On Tuesday 3 August Manchester plays host to Wu-Tang Clan, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, World Atlas, Grand Archives and Pantha du Prince - any two of these would be an impressive clash. But all five?!
This month's mixtape [40 mins /46 MB] is quite a hushed affair - probably down to the effects of the languid August heat rather than my predilections? Download link is in the post following this one.
