Swim Deep Live in Bangkok (Feb 7)
When asked about politics in music, Austin Williams, frontman of hotly-tipped dream rockers Swim Deep, simply said he’d rather not discuss David Cameron and just let their music do the talking. We think they’ve timed their arrival perfectly. Local indie fans can be sweetly distracted with tracks like “King City” and “She Changes the Weather.” Pre-sale tickets SOLD OUT, 80 tickets available on the door.

US synthpop duo Unicorn Domination are joined by Myanmar-based act Bloodsugar Politik and locals The Standards and Deadtown Trash, while DJs spin indie, Britpop and 60s classics.
