Scottish Fiction Presents: Book Group, Behold The Old Bear, and Shambles Miller

It's been a while since the last Scottish Fiction Presents gig, but boy what a way to make a comeback!  I'm delighted to officially announce that on Thursday, 20th November at The Cellar on Queen Street, Glasgow the next Scottish Fiction Presents gig will take place. 

And topping our bill are the glorious Book Group, one of the finest Edinburgh bands plying their trade at the moment, with fuzzy guitars, a fulsome rhythm section all squeezed in with some infectious pop hooks.  Live, the band always provide an emphatic performance, bombing anthems out across the crowd.  Keep an eye out for megaphones and wandering frontmen!


Support comes from quirky alt-pop Behold, The Old Bear, fresh from their split cassette release via Scottish Fiction for Cassette Store Day, and everyone's favourite singer-songwriter; Shambles Miller.

Scottish Fiction Presents: A Beerjackt & Friends Christmas

The most magical time of the year, just got a little bit more magical.  You may have seen we announced the latest Scottish Fiction Presents: gig via Facebook and Twitter on Thursday night.  If not, here's the official blog post promoting what we will be getting up to!  You can purchase tickets right now at this link.

Scottish Fiction Presents: A Beerjacket & Friends Christmas

Glasgow singer-songwriter extravaganza Beerjacket will be playing alongside some special guests in a very special, very Christmassy performance.  We're keeping his musical collaborators under wraps just now, but as we get closer to the night, some treats might just come unwrapped.  Needless to say we have some very exciting things up our sleeve.

Beerjacket's last album, The White Feather Trail, was received to rave reviews throughout the Scottish music press (and beyond).  Recent live shows saw Beerjacket play with Kristin Hersch (Throwing Muses / solo).  She had this to say about his music:

"No matter how much music you listen to, you rarely stumble across a musical approach that does not wear its influences on its sleeve. these songs speak in their own language."

With a new Beerjacket album waiting in the wings for release, this show will be a seasonal mix of tracks old and new.

Support comes from the wonderful Julia and the Doogans with another support act still to be announced.  Julia Doogan has one of the finest female voices in Glasgow, and with back up band of cello, flute and keyboards, the band create charming melodies that will wrap your heart in joy.  Perfect tonic for a Glasgow Christmas evening.

Taking place on Thursday 5th December at Mono Cafe Bar in Glasgow, tickets will be limited in number for a cosy intimate evening, and will be priced at a bargain £5.  Tickets are currently onsale here.
