Remi Wolf
Koko, London, 14 June; Academy 3, Manchester, 16 June
The California maximalist’s brand of DayGlo pop cannot be contained, to the point where Wolf has
already rereleased last October’s debut album, Juno. These live shows celebrate one of music’s
most exciting recent discoveries. Michael Cragg

Isle of Wight festival
Seaclose Park, Newport, 16 to 19 June
Seemingly plucked at random from the playlists of XFM and Radio 2, this year’s Isle of Wight
lineup finds the Fratellis rubbing shoulders with Jessie Ware, and Wet Leg sharing a stage with the
Kooks. Lewis Capaldi, Kasabian and Muse make up the headliners. MC

Pat Metheny
Apollo Hammersmith, London, 12 June
Guitar great Pat Metheny’s exciting Side-Eye trio finally make UK landfall, with Thundercat/Flying
Lotus keyboard newcomer Chris Fishman, and New Orleans drummer Joe Dyson. Metheny’s
country-tinged classics, edgy jazz improv and groove-bending all go into this rare mix. John
Fordham

Catamorphosis
Symphony Hall, Birmingham, 15 June; Snape Maltings, Aldeburgh, 18 June
First performed by the Berlin Philharmonic during lockdown last year, Anna Thorvaldsdóttir’s 20-
minute orchestral piece, inspired by the fragile relationship we have with our planet, arrives in
Britain as one of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra’s centenary commissions. Andrew
