This week's gigs, featuring Scout Leader, Noise Noir and a load of pigs
Our favourite hardcore punks Scout Leader are heading a fundraiser at the Map Studio Cafe on 12 April for the Helen Bamber Foundation, which works with refugees and asylum seekers. Support to be confirmed, with all proceeds to the charity.
The Franklys will be launching their new EP 'Framed' at The Finsbury Pub on Thursday 11 April. Get there early for Noise Noir kicking off the show, with additional support from Suggested Friends.
M.I.C. is part of a major night of underground rap at Folklore on Wednesday 10 April. Hosted by 237, tickets are already sold out, but keep an eye on your usual channels for any that are going spare.
Tickets might also be an issue for this one, as the tediously-named-but-actually-quite-good Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs continue their tour. This week's gigs include Norwich, Cambridge, Oxford, Nottingham, Leicester, Preston and Chester, with limited availability across the board.
With their new album out on 12 April, Fontaines D.C. are taking to the road. See them in Bristol, Leeds, Manchester or Glasgow this week.
