I AM & Brain Dancing take on Edinburgh!

The driving electronica enthusiasts from Glasgow have been slowly working away at something very special over the last few years. Never being a pair that have let the done thing set their tone, the Brain Dancing pair of Ross Anderson & Rob * Etherson * have been carving their own past since starting out.

Originally Brain Dancing was a promoter project, aiming at putting the focus back on the crowd and not announcing their guest names despite booking some killer names. They have since refocused their energy on productions, and with much success, blending driving baselines, Italo themes, electronica, and some crazy melodies.

They’re a truly unique sound currently and one that’s set to rock sneaky’s to its core.

Sneaks wins Music Week Grassroots Music Venue 2019!

The Music Week Awards are the most prestigious awards for the UK music industry, and we are more than thrilled to announce that we have won their award for best small venue!

We are cock-a-hoop happy about this and we can’t give enough praise to the brilliant musicians who play here, nor to you our amazing gig and club goers. Edinburgh really is a music city!

The full title of the award is ‘Grassroots Music Venue: Spirit Of The Scene’, and that reflects not just the quality of the venue, but also the work we have done over the past years to improve the lot of all music venues in Scotland and the UK.

A quick summary of some of that work, since we don’t make a song and dance about it, is:

– Successfully campaigned to change the unfair ‘inaudibility clause’ in Edinburgh’s licensing policy

– Successfully campaigned, at great length and at close quarters, to change the forthcoming Planning Act (Scotland) to include amendments to introduce the Agent Of Change principle which will protect Music Venues from noise complaint issues caused by new developments.

– Contributed to Music Venue Trust’s evidence to DCMS’s Enquiry into Live Music at Westminster, an enquiry whose recommendations directly led to a £1.5m ringfenced fund for Grassroots Music Venues from Arts Council England.

– provided written and oral evidence to the Culture Committee at Holyrood to argue for a similar ringfenced fund for Scottish Venues

come help us celebrate the launch of our new single “tonic youth”, we’ll be joined by the incredible golden arm and fast approaches.

If you’re a fan of the left field, chuggers and spiritual musical adventures, this is the party for you…
