  • Sparrow and the Workshop – ‘Murderopolis’

    Jill O’Sullivan’s vocals are curious, compelling and affected. In their live shows they are utterly possessive. In Murderopolis they have found their best gallery yet.
    Murderopolis starts as it means to go on with The Valley of Death: lyrically thoughtful; sharply punctuated; and carefully paced. This much is to be expected from the trio. [...]

    Degree Shows are, as far as I’m concerned, fraught with danger; the sheer weight of what’s on offer causing fluctuations in quality, as well as meaning that the more subtle and esoteric works get crowded out by the whizz-bang neon lights and large-scale installations.

    Working with engineers and geologists by day, by night I’m hoping I can take my writing experience and my enthusiasm for live and recorded music to a [...]

  • Glasgow Podcart is a Scottish based music/arts website. We produce weekly podcasts showcasing the best in grass roots and unsigned artists not only from Scotland, but around the world. The main idea behind the podcast being that we don’t want to create some pretentious ‘Indie’ site and would rather expose as much new talent as possible. No matter what style, what size or how established, we believe everyone deserves a platform to showcase their work.

Spaced in the City!

Thursday, March 29th, 2012

The amount of events on this weekend is staggering and Spaced in the City is one of the most notable ones.

The team are hosting their first multi-arts show and it has been designed around the concept of ’space within the city’.

On the 31st of March, performers and the general public alike are invited to interact with and explore The Lighthouse. Podcart knows this arts space very well and we have put on our own exhibition at this venue. It is humble and is a fantastic blank canvas.

Now the team encourage you to BYOI, which stands for Bring Your Own Instrument. No crude jokes about pink oboes if you please, this is serious! So if you partake in an instrument then please bring it along.

The doors open at 5.45pm and it starts at 6pm SHARP so no lateness!

All details are as follows:

The Lighthouse, Mitchell Lane
6pm – 1am
£8 advance ticket @ Ticket Scotland (Argyll St) and www.ticketscotland.co.uk
Over 18s (cash bar)

Now for the exciting stuff, who exactly will be showcasing? Without further ado:

Musical performance by:
The Cosmic Dead, Seventeenth Century, Friends in America, Kettle of Kites, Robin Adams, Los Tentakills, Beldina O, Dead Boy Robotics.

Visual Art by:

It’s things like this that get us very excited. Cross-pollination of art forms is a beautiful thing and this is sure to be a spectacular evening.
