About Me

The little sister of Drive Carefully Records , giving you some great ethical gigs. We are pleased to be one of several promoters in our native Glasgow who like to do things the non-profit way. We have been at it for well over a year now. This profile exists so we can promote bands we love outside of Drive Carefully's monthly night at the 13th Note, keeping things more open.
For an extremely well written article on pay to play and it’s implications on Glasgow’s music scene please go here GO HERE , do not deal with a promoter who is willing to treat you this way! There are alternatives. We work by splitting all money between bands after costs have been covered, also making sure they have good food to eat, travel money and a nice place to sleep.
If you are a touring or local band and wish to play please get in touch (don't be shy!). If we have nothing that suits we will pass your details on to a fellow d.i.y promoter who will treat you well.
We like pretty looking posters. turgid, boring text over a photocopied background cramming up wall space in glasgow's drinking establishments upsets us. Put some effort in!
We love zines! (and cakes and homemade jewelry). If you sell zines (or cakes, or homemade jewelry) and would like to have a wee stall at one of our shows please get in touch.
Love,
The girls and boys from Go-ra-Ga
