If there's one band set to tear up the festivals like no other this summer - it's undoubtedly Lisbon. The Whitley Bay four-piece will play Brighton's annual The Great Escape festival followed by a date at Norwich's The Waterfront on Sunday 22nd. Latest single 'Shark' went down a storm and it's a cut you definitely need to hear live. Lisbon are one of Britain's best new bands and their extensive tour provides many opportunities for you to become well acquainted with them over the summer.

Portsmouth's Wedgewood Rooms never fails to put on a good gig and Sundara Karma at the venue on Wednesday 25th will be no exception. The band have toured extensively recently and the crowds are getting bigger and bigger. Go be part of the action in Portsmouth, you won't regret it.
Tickets are £10.45 and are available here.
