NEW ISSUE OUT NOW!


Clash Live's infamous event at the Lock Tavern in London is set to return shortly with yet another stunning line up featuring Sam Isaacs, Roses Kings Castles and stunning Brooklyn indie types Department Of Eagles.

Sam Isaacs is a young songwriter from London, whose devoted cult following have helped propel him from playing tiny gigs in peoples bedrooms to performing before huge crowds at the Glastonbury festival. His first EP was released back in 2006, and since then those lucky enough to have witnessed him sing have returned breathless with excitement. They say: he sounds like a combination of Ed Harcourt and Bright Eyes. Clash Live Says: come on down and see for yourself!

Also on the bill we have part-time Babyshambles rhythm master Adam Ficek. Going by the name of Roses Kings Castles, Ficek's debut album was better than we had any right to expect - a blend of Ray Davies melancholic Britpop and Nick Drake's pastoral melodies, 'Roses Kings Castles' was an overwhelming success. Expect the unexpected from this wonderful performer!





Department Of Eagles hail from New York and make the kind of joyful computer based folktronica that makes you glad Bill Gates lives in a house made of solid gold. Since 2001 former room-mates Daniel Rossen and Fred Nicolaus have been honing their own unique sound, resulting in this year's celebrated album 'In Ear Park'. A bizarre blend of gentle psychedelia and trippy beats, it earned rave reviews. Playing a rare UK show, this is truly one to watch.

Clash Live takes over The Lock Tavern in London on Sunday November 30th. Kicking off at 2pm, we'll keep you entertained until 11pm with a stunning musical cocktail. Entry is free so don't miss out!
