As produced by one of our favourite musicians, this “girl & an electric guitar singing fierce & fragile songs” is making a much more fearsome sound than that suggests, like Savages with girl band hooks and some Tori Amos dead-eyed directness. Absolutely very highly recommended show to check out – tip!
Hailing from the east end of Glasgow comes a wave of acoustic guitars, electronic beats and synths in the form of Jt Forrest. Playing in and around Glasgow for several years in different guises, only recently has he settled on a style that feels all his own. Merging the sad of 90’s indie (Elliott Smith) and the happy of 60’s pop (Beach Boys), catchy choruses and thoughtful lyrics clash to create an intimate and poppy sound. First headlining show in Edinburgh so expect a party.
Alternative Rock/Alt Metal bands from Scotland. For fans of Biffy Clyro, Arcane Roots, Oceansize and Fightstar.
“Not The Sensational Alex Harvey Band” are not a tribute band. They are a rock ‘n roll band who only play music from “The Sensational Alex Harvey Band”. Any similarities are pure coincidence.

“‘Condition’ sounds huge, as if the quartet were playing at maximum volume in a canyon. Sudden shifts between grinding white-noise guitar and metronomic strumming – evoking vintage Steve Albini – are set off against terse riffs and hazy, choirboy vocals.” MOJO (4/5) [Read more →]
Dr. Rubinstein has had one of the most authentic and homegrown rises to fame of any Techno DJ in recent history. Without any label affiliation or record releases to date, she has simply let the music do the talking. From club performances at her longtime residency at Berlin’s ://about_blank, a recent closing stint at Berghain, to a new residency at Oval Spaces alongside DJ Nobu. Add several festival bookings this Summer including Barcelona’s Sonar Festival b2b with Marcel Dettmann and we think you’ll agree it’s been quite the year for her. We can’t wait to see what her acid-drenched brand of techno will do in a 150-capacity venue. Not one to be missed.

Jim Gellatly –
“From the tracks I’ve heard, Lost In Vancouver have stacks of potential. With comparisons being made to Kings Of Leon and early Arctic Monkeys, it won’t be long until they break out of their local area”
