Inviting attendees to bounce between three of the area’s finest venues, the day festival is headlined by up-and-comers Butch Kassidy, Moreish Idols, Tony Njoku and Lemondaze.

Breaking into the bustling summer festival schedule this year, newcomer festival East London Block Party looks set to impose itself on the calendar with its inaugural lineup. Announcing itself as a “celebration of grassroots music”, it brings together a diverse selection of acts, appropriately eclectic in reflection of the scene’s stylistic diversity. At the top of the bill, the heavyweight post-rock sound of Butch Kassidy plays off against the gentler piano-led jazz of Tony Njoku. Completing the quartet of headliners are Speedy Wunderground’s rowdy recent acquisition Moreish Idols, and fuzzed-out, wall-of-guitar quartet Lemondaze.

The festival bounces between three of Shoreditch’s crucial venues: The Strongroom, Dream Bags Jaguar Shoes and the epochal Old Blue Last, home to countless crucial early shows from acts on the point of breaking big. Spread over this 7-minute walking distance, the earlier hours of the event (which kicks off at 18.30) showcase, among other gems, psych-licked punk rockers Hot Face (fresh from the release party of their recent Speedy single), Vanity Fairy’s effortlessly magnificent blend of disco and surreal cabaret, and the charmingly earnest math-rock of Pushpin. Rosie Alena brings her classily eclectic jazz-pop while Headboy will doubtless prove how they have become the new darlings of tastemakers including Steve Lamacq.

With the final tickets selling here, this is doubtless one to fit in for a burst of the freshest names taking the scene by storm.
