If Nick Cave is trying to make amends for his error of judgement over the recent Tel Aviv gigs (and the way he tried to justify them), then he's going the right way about it. A headline appearance at new London festival All Points East on 3rd June, with Patti Smith, St Vincent and compatriot Courtney Barnett in support, is pretty much guaranteed to be a highlight of next summer.
In other live news, Yo La Tengo's recently announced tour dates don't include anything in Cardiff (the nearest gig is at Birmingham Town Hall), but at least their label Matador are not-so-subtly hinting that a new LP (their first since 2013's Fade) is on the way: "MIGHT THIS TOUR HAVE SOMETHING OR OTHER TO DO WITH NEW RECORDINGS? Maybe. Possibly. Who can really say for sure in confusing times such as these?"
