Summer Live Music Events

 

Check out these great summer festival events:

 

 

Saturday 26th July

 
 
In the SNO!bar:
 
We've got some great DJs and live music lined up for you at night.
 
The night will be kicking off with some chilled out hip-hop beats from Subcity Radio's DJ Darthfader.
 
Following that we've got some home-grown live hip-hop from Capitol 1212 feat. MC Profisee. These guys have just released their debut EP on Kool Kat records, check them out before they blow up.
 
Next up is Hint who has released records on both Ninja Tune and Brighton's Tru Thoughts. He's an excellent DJ who mixes up hip-hop with a healthy dose of funk and some huge basslines. A frequent collaborator with and favourite DJ of Glasgow's own Boom Monk Ben, high praise indeed!
 
In the headline slot we have a set from the amazing London 5-piece electro band Devil's Gun. These guys will be wowing crowds at big festivals like V and Isle of Wight this summer with their brand of hip-hop and reggae infused dance music. Check them out at www.myspace.com/devilsgun.
 
Bringing the night home we've got a bouncing set of ghetto-tech and fidget-house from Bradley C, recently seen hosting Annie Nightingale and the Utah Saints at Sub Club for the BBC Introducing tour (and from what we've heard, blowing the competition out of the water!).
 
 
On the slope
 
In the afternoon we'll have the next leg of the most laid back freestyle competition around, the TSA Showdown. A great opportunity to try out your skills in a relaxed and open competition environment or just to check out some of the best local and national talent in action.
 
After that we'll be opening the course up for a discounted freestyle session late into the evening to allow everyone to hone their skills for less before they head up to the bar for a superb night of beats and breaks.
 
 
 

Saturday 23rd August

 
 
In the SNO!bar
 
Saturday is a celebration of Scottish indie music with a local Battle of the Bands in the afternoon followed by sets from some of the country's best up and coming indie acts.
 
So far the line-up includes Frightened Rabbit, Figure 5 and a DJ set from Radio 1's Vic Galloway but we should have some very exciting news on more acts in the next few days. Saty tuned for more info!

We start off the action on Sunday with a couple of crowd-pleasing tributes sets from The Stereotonics and Oasish.

We'll be rounding off the evening in emphatic style with a bouncing set of rip-roaring ska from the epic 10-piece Bombskare. There's little to rival the energy of this squad of brass-wielding mad-men, check them out at www.myspace.com/bombskare.
 
Also... don't miss our circus skills and african drumming workshops, perfect for keeping the whole family entertained.
