Event information

Time for another fabulous showcase featuring some of the coolest GRSE graduates in some of the coolest new bands in Edinburgh, and we are not exaggerating!

Expect: loud, sweaty, righteous rock, punk, ska, and everything else in between in an electric atmosphere you can get nowhere else in the city, that's open to all, with moshing and stage invasions actively encouraged!

Come along and see the bands and meet some of our grads, and by the end of the night, you might actually BE in a band!

Everyone welcome (18+ or 14+ with adult).

£6/£4 unwaged/concessions

Featuring:

IONA MCCALL

KATHERINE GARDEN
Flowery folk-pop songs covered with a blooming smile!

ASEXUAL ROMANTIC
Songs about our beautiful selves, hidden from view, forbidden to speak, and the courage of transformation. Straight from the heart!

VALENSTEIN
An electronic artist from Edinburgh. Heavily influenced by punk, 80’s goth rock, hyperpop, and the more happy hardcore leaning clubland classics, Valensteïn layers spoken word and powerful vocals over glittery, bouncing synths and strong alt-pop melodies. Their songs explore sobriety, neurodivergence, self-acceptance, mental health, youth, nostalgia, and loneliness.

COMPOST PATRIARCHY
We four stand united in crochet, ready to Compost Patriarchy in all its forms. Listen to our rebellious tunes and imagine a new world grown from the fertilized bodies of those who upheld an unjust system to create a thriving garden of punk. Together we shout "Brandish your hoes and join us in the Lady Garden"!
@CompostPatriarchy

THE PARTY WHIP
A brand new riot-grrrl fun-punk band playing an unapologetic set of songs covering politics to partying, solidarity to silliness, and life lessons to love stories, with angry fists to joyful jazz hands. Now with added dance breaks!

? THE SABOTAGERS
Sabotaging songs with an existential high-pitch attitude.
