Levi's live music events

On 22nd September, Levi’s® OnesToWatch® takes up residency in London’s notorious musical hive, The Macbeth with the 2008, 5 Night Revue – a showcase of original, creative and cutting-edge music. The week of shows features an electrifying mix of some of the most hotly-tipped bands, making waves with industry and fans alike.

Each night of the Revue has been especially curated to reward a musically savvy crowd with a stand-alone, defining musical experience. The diversity of bands showcased through the week will ensure that each experience is unique. Edinburgh’s hotly tipped Broken Records, London electro-kid Esser and Devon’s finest Metronomy are amongst the roll call of OnesToWatch®.

The 5 Night Revue follows the sell-out success of 2007’s 4 Night Revue, which focussed the public spotlight on such bands as The Wombats, Foals and Ida Maria, and marks the start of the Autumn Levi’s Ones To Watch national tour.

Full Line-up:

Monday 22nd September: Bombay Bicycle Club + Sky Larkin

Tuesday 23rd September: Iglu & Hartley + Micachu

Wednesday 24th Sept: Broken Records + support TBC

Thursday 25th Sept: Esser + Your Twenties

Friday 26th Sept: Metronomy + Tubelord

XFM will be profiling a selection of the bands in series of special documentaries bands from 1st September on Exposure between 10pm-1am.

The Levi’s®OnesToWatch® tour has enjoyed a storming 2008, including a debut appearance at The Great Escape Festival in Brighton, back in May. On top of three sell-out nights, Levi’s® put on a special surprise open air gig with We Are Scientists in front of Brighton Pier – attracting a massive crowd and plaudits for the best gig of the festival. Rumours are already circulating regarding a very special, secret, 5 Night Revue gig…

Capacity at each show is limited to 200, with tickets going on sale from 28th August from Ticketweb.co.uk. If you’re not lucky enough to get your hands on tickets, you will still be able to catch some of the action on Channel 4 at a later date, in a series of Levi’s OnesToWatch special shows.

The Levi’s®OnesToWatch® programme, now in its fifth year, has become synonymous with the best up and coming acts, and this line-up promises to deliver some more amazing live performances.
