Scottish folk rockers The Electrics headline The Poetry Club on Sunday 17 November 2024.
After forming in 1988 when former Infrapenny members Sammy Horner and Paul Baird asked drummer Dave McArthur and sax/keyboard player Allan Hewitt to play a gig at Glasgow's Impact Festival, they released a self-financed cassette album, Views in Blues, in 1989. Following this recording the band evolved a celtic rock sound, heavily influenced by The Waterboys and The Pogues, and went on to perform in the UK, Europe and the US.
This event is strictly 14+. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or over. One adult can attend with a maximum of two Under 16s.
