Our first gig in Glasgow and it is going to be a belter! We are chuffed to pieces to be playing as part of the Celtic Connections Festival AND playing on the bill with the Superb John Grant. You can find the blurb for the gig below + a link to the Festival website…..
'After considerable critical praise but soul-destroying popular neglect for his former band The Czars, John Grant nearly retired his gorgeous baritone voice and sump...tuously heartbreaking songcraft for good. Thankfully, he was persuaded to undertake the stunning creative catharsis of his solo debut Queen of Denmark, widely rated among 2010’s best albums, by his numero uno fans, Texan folk-rock combo Midlake, who also served as his studio backing band. The album was also crowned as MOJO magazine’s Album of the Year in 2010.
The rather splendidly named Sharks Took the Rest (a mordant allusion from Jaws) create blissful, panoramic pop out of lush, chamber-style textures, swoonsome female vocals and an artful dash of electronica.'
Tickets: £15
