First fruits of ATP and Detour partnership see ace Swedes following up their Supersonic performance

Ace Swedish psychedelic afrobeat loons Goat have announced that they'll be playing a headline London show.

The gig will be at the Scale on June 27, and tickets will go on sale next Tuesday, January 29, at 10am - for more details, head here.
