dont be fooled its serious sunshine !!!!!

I've relaunched the Rave Child Glasgow Gig Listings page and it's more comprehensive than ever: the aim is to list every music event in Glasgow. Currently it lists a shade over 2,000 shows across 130 venues, constantly updated, with tonight’s gigs always at the top. You can view it here: https://ravechild.co.uk

To go along with this I am publishing daily and weekly recommendations from the listings via the Rave Child Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ravechildglasgow/

On top of this we have Everybody Wants to Play the Hits which you may be aware of as we are nearly at episode 50, but if you are not it's a roundtable new Scottish music review podcast we run alongside SNACK Mag. The show goes out on a monthly basis, with a top guests every episode, between four people we pick two new Scottish tracks each listen to them and talk about what we think, you can listen on your favourite podcast platform here: https://linktr.ee/ewtpth

On top this we have our Best New Scottish Music Playlist, which does exactly what it says on the tin, I listen to all the new Scottish music I can source on a weekly basis and deliver my recommendation in one place. You can listen here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5vorHLZnpbnQJDg7SXXcoZ?si=33422f7166ed468f

This is a short clip of TheFloorDwellers opening Freakender Festival with an original song called 'Death of Pop'.

Upcoming gigs:

Glasgow- 18th of December- Mchuilles

Edinburgh- 4th November - Sneaky Pete's

Their Instagram will post more dates for gigs and a release date for two original singles with an album in the works.

It's shameless self promotion - I know - but venues only look at follower count these days so the Instagram name is TheFloorDwellers or the link is below.

... and I wanted to say thanks to anyone who watched/liked/upvoted what I put up. To anyone who didn't see it, I'm releasing a song for charity (which charity TBD) this Christmas. Today, I have just uploaded the first teaser for the song! Check it out, and let me know what you think!

Want to find the lyrics/what it means but I don't have any Gàidhlig so I can't look it up lol

Still Folk-Rock, still the finest from Scotland !

WHAT ELSE CAN I DO ?

Didn't realise their was a subreddit for Scottish music, so felt like this should be here!

Too Red are a duo from Glasgow (I think), they sound like a mix between Royal Blood and The Pretty Reckless. I've seen them live a few times over the last year and for two people they are LOUD. Both my pal and I feel like we've been lucky to see them before they go huge.

This band is still not getting enough love.
I have the debut and their second cassettes which I loved so much.

Every song makes me smile. Their accent, the music, the lyrics.

And they are still recording ! That’s a celebration on any band after nearly 40 years.

Sludgy, groovy and evil early Electric Wizard / Cough worship with some Burning Witch vocals

Love this rendition.

Got my mastered track back from the engineer tonight. Very pleased with how it turned out. The engineer was impressed with my rapping skills and basically just what I rap about so has asked me to start writing and recording for his beats. As an artist I'm usually slept on so it feels good to get a bit of forward momentum with my creativity. Let me know what you think

Hidden Scottish talent

When people mention Scotland, all the Scottish indie bands will come to my mind.
The Jesus and Mary Chain are always one of those bands.

Always love reading band early interviews.
This interview was during their Darklands period. May 1987.

https://open.spotify.com/artist/5URIm8uPtb5hpOjIaIONYr?si=vx9RFDJkQUKgKxBoVmcUZg we have 3 song out atm with more on the way!

I'm releasing a Christmas song for charity (which charity is TBD - suggestions in the comments welcome), and today I'm putting the first taster of it out there!

3 months is a long time, so it'll be eked out between now and December, with some surprises along the way. I'm just one guy with a dream taking on the big names, major labels and AI music, so this is a low-budget operation for sure, and having a bit of local momentum behind me to start would be fantastic (and save me running away out of embarrassment!), so your likes and follows would mean a whole lot.

I'm really proud of the song and I think it'll be something that you, your kids and your gran will love.

'Nuff said, here's the first teaser, featuring the song's intro (sans vocals):
