Shiverin' Sheiks are a fantastic party band who have opened for The Mavericks, Glasvegas, and more. They have played festivals from The Edinburgh Festival  to Glastonbury. A dance floor focussed vintage rock and roll band, they're a fantastic band to remember. 

Awkward Family Portraits have been dishing out rockin’ roots music to the streets of Glasgow since 2016. With a roguish charm and signature style that elevates them far above the dusty stereotypes of the genre, AFP are a band that have one central goal and that is to get you to abandon all of the outside world’s hang-ups and move. You only need to catch the briefest glimpse of a live show to feel an insatiable urge to make your way into the crowd and let loose!
