Smoked Glass (Booking Summer gigs NOW)

About Me


Filled with stunning bluesy soul, lyrical genius, and several test tubes of Jägermeister, Smoked Glass are the sound causing a stir on the Scottish unsigned scene. Based in Edinburgh, John, Colin, Mikey, Kevin and Callum have stunned audiences across the central belt. Having gained recognition from press such as The Skinny Mag & Scottish Sun and a variety of specialist music websites, their growing following is down to the uniqueness of their music - they sound like nothing you've heard. The attraction of new talent with fresh ideas is too much for some to ignore. You'll be hearing the name a lot in the future so memorize it now, Smoked Glass are the shape of things to come.
- Quotes -
"Scotland's Next Big Rock Band"
"Anyone Who's Seen Smoked Glass Will Have Enjoyed a Thriller Of A Show."
- The Sun
"There Is No Stopping The Smoked Glass Juggernaut"
"Smoked Glass Have Swelled To A Sturdy Guitar-toting, Synth-wrecking Five-piece With A Drive And Confidence Worthy Of The Gallaghers"
- The Skinny Mag
"Rarely do you see a group so young with such command of a crowd, but then even more infrequently do you hear a band as competent with their instruments and a vocalist with a voice so potent."
