London's music scene is one of the most vibrant in the world. The city's creative allure draws in bands, singers, DJs, record collectors and ravers from across the country, from musicians moving to the capital with stars in their eyes, to the melomaniacs flocking in to catch live performances by the next big thing or legends from decades past. Whether you're after richly stocked record shops or spirited festivals, sweaty gigs from up-and-coming bands in basement bars or spectacular live shows at world famous venues, these are the places that make up London's pulsing beat.

Social, relaxing and actually really good for you... saunas are replacing the pub as Britons' favourite past-time. They can be found everywhere, from rugged Pembrokeshire coastlines and Scottish islands to inner-city carparks. Some are so traditional, they could have been plucked from Helsinki; others put an innovative - and distinctly British - spin on things, with saunas in repurposed horseboxes and pub backrooms. Many are new, boasting dynamic community events (sweaty yoga, anyone?); some are as old as our heritage spa towns. This book explores the very best of them.
