ChiLam: July 6–8th
Julian Cheung, better known as ChiLam, with his puppy-dog eyes and woeful love songs, first hit fame with the wistful ‘Modern Love Story’ way back in 1991. Still breaking hearts in 2014, ChiLam will be playing on July 7th and 8th at the Hong Kong Coliseum. Be sure to catch these arena shows for a truly Chinese concert experience. Grab tickets here, but hurry, these gigs sell out fast!
Vader: July 13th
Josh Homme, of popular rockers Queens of the Stone Age, once called them: “The Eagles of death metal” – perhaps this is the metal band the expats have been searching for! Raise a fist here for tickets and catch them at Hidden Agenda on July 13th.
The Yours: July 19th
Tickets to their album release show on July 19th at Hidden Agenda are only available on the door. Check their website for more info.
Lan Kwai Fong Beer and Music Festival: July 19/20th
Expect fevered sing-alongs to rival that of the loudest World Cup fans, as numerous bands take to the various pop-up stages around the district. Cool off with an ice-cold beer from the many Craft-ale sellers and party the night away, summer-style. Check the Facebook page for updates.
Russian Circles and ANWIYCTI: July 22nd
Promoting their 5th album ‘Memorial’, the group is experimenting with dark sounds and textures – the perfect antidote to Hong Kong’s bubblegum pop! Joining them on this journey is ANWIYCTI, a local band featuring three (that’s right, three) bass guitarists! For a sight, and sound, to behold, grab tickets for their July 22nd show (Hidden Agenda) at the record stores listed here.
Time Out’s Big Night Out: Girls Out Loud: July 25th
Now it’s time for the girls to show us how it’s done, with the Girls Out Loud event. Featuring Eman Lam from folktronica group at17, folk-math genre-hoppers GDJYB, and soothing songstress Yukilovey, this female fest is sure to be another hit. Entry is free, so bring your girls (and guys) along to the Piazza at the K11 Art Mall and have a frugal freakout. Psst... If you RSVP at timeout.com.hk/bignightout, you'll get a free drink (while stocks last)!
Slowdive: July 28th
Get ready to be stunned as they play dreamy classics like ‘Allison’ and ‘Machine Gun’ with too many effects pedals to count! 90s bowl haircuts and anoraks optional. See here for tickets.
Stephen Bishop: Simply Acoustic: July 28th
