You've just enough time to recover from Field Day (or Underage, for you scrappy young'uns) before the next music fest in a park. Saturday sees the launch of Little London Fields at, you guessed, London Fields. Bands include Throwing Snow and Mirrors, and entry is free. As for the rest of the week:

Hip-hop legends Wu-Tang Clan will be at Brixton Academy on Tuesday. If folky pop is more your speed, Portugal, The Man, will be at Camp with support from Larsen B.

Wednesday sees a performance from Will Oldham in his Bonnie 'Prince' Billy guise at Shepherds Bush Empire.

Londonist favourite Eugene McGuinness will be at the Dublin Castle in support of the reformed Deaf School. You can catch both bands on Thursday and Friday.

Finally, on Sunday, you'll have one last chance to catch John Kameel Farah (on this tour) when he plays Je-Thames. You can probably infer the location of the show based on the clever word play.
