When: March 14, 2013

Superbly-coiffured synthpop fellow Ben Esser brings his well-rounded sound to one of Dalston’s most charming venues this Thursday, filling the quirky Servant Jazz Quarters with music that shifts between downcast moodiness and upbeat pop.

Clinic @ Corsica Studios

Dust down your scrubs and face-masks and douse yourself in surgical spirits, because Thursday sees a revitalised Clinic hit Corsica Studios. The venue has got some incredible gigs lined up over the next couple of months courtesy of in-house bookers Baba Yaga's Hut, but Clinic supported by space-rockers Mugstar has to be among the most exciting. Last year's 'Free Reign' album confirmed that Clinic are right back on top of their game, and following this week's release of an alternate version remixed by producer Daniel Lopatin (aka Oneohtrix Point Never), there couldn't be a better time to catch them in action. Well, apart from in May when they play as part of eyeball-sporting oddballs The Residents' 40th birthday celebrations, but, you know, why not just go to both?
