Every city has its sound-Manhattan's taxi commotion and Sydney ferries, or Cairo's car horns and New Orleans' trumpets in the streets-though try and define it too much and you'll miss the music of the place. To be a good traveler, you really only have to listen.

I've been listening to Glasgow since the eighties-ever since I popped The Jesus And Mary Chain into my cassette player and turned it over and over again for a good six months. Pretty soon I was dreaming of Scotland-any band that makes you open an atlas is a good band.

Thirty years on, the greatest music (like The Twilight Sad) still comes from Glasgow, and I admit that so much of my love for this city lies in the tremendous music it has born. Thus I find myself at a table, in the Glasgow Botanical Gardens on a sunny Sunday afternoon, shooting questions at Francis Macdonald, drummer of Teenage Fanclub, and manager of Glasgow bands Camera Obscura, Attic Lights, and The Vaselines.

"Well, [Glasgow] is a big city-it's the biggest city in Scotland and the fourth largest in the UK-so it's a natural destination for students," explains Francis. " Belle and Sebastian, or Camera Obscura, or The Commotions -these are bands that formed with University of Glasgow students who are not originally from Glasgow. People come go to Glasgow to study and then meet like-minded creatives."

"I think if you like music from Glasgow, you go there," he adds, "The next wave of music fans find each other and form bands.

"So, you're saying that this is not just phase or some moment-it can continue?" I wonder.

"Yes. It's cyclical thing-it can and will keep happening," he confirms, and I am glad.

Francis pauses thoughtfully before continuing, "I suppose Glasgow is big but also manageable-it's a nice size. You can navigate it and you can bump into people easily. Each generation influences the next, people are still coming here because they like Glasgow bands-so there's a self-fulfilling thing going on."

Francis mentions the band he plays with now, Teenage Fanclub, which at 24 years on, is still referenced as one of the most influential groups from Glasgow. What's it like to be a part of such formative music?

"I don't feel like I can sit here and say that I'm flattered because I wasn't really involved in making these earlier records. I can probably talk about them in the third person-Teenage Fanclub influenced me. When I first met Douglas and Norman, I felt wet behind the ears because I hadn't heard of the Velvet Underground and didn't really understand what was going on. I had a lot of catching up to do."

"But so many different bands around the world mention Teenage Fanclub specifically," and they do. I'm amazed how many times I hear that reference from bands on both sides of the Atlantic.

"Yes," Francis agrees. "Like Mogwai and Snow Patrol. I think often with musicians, professional jealousies can bubble over, so it's refreshing that a band can seem unusually supported or thought fondly of by their peers. There was a period when Teenage Fanclub was compared to Dinosaur Junior, but when Bandwagonesque came out, every interview seemed to name check Big Star specifically. Norman has this theory that maybe if the band had been more successful, some of that would have fallen away, but the fact is, we were never really a threat [to the others].

"But there's also a charm and a sense of humor in the music, something non-threatening about them. It's melodic and positive, fun and new-it's this attitude like, 'why don't we try this?' It's not reinventing the wheel, per se, just presenting it differently."

"So, you would say that Glasgow has an eclectic taste?" I state the obvious.

"I think it's a big city. You know- Daft Punk had their first single out on a Glasgow label. There's a common thread and if you really want to, you can join the dots, but it wouldn't be productive. I think you'd miss something. I think it's interesting that Stuart from Mogwai can talk about Teenage Fanclub because I would never have guessed that. It's unusual-not a given. Band members themselves have very different tastes. One listens to Northern soul, and I'm trying to catch up with classical music and minimalism, or Tracyanne loves Fleetwood Mac and a lot of eighties mainstream pop, you know, you think you're not supposed to like that. Gavin's mad for Manchester bands and New Order. So any band you choose, there's a list of all these things going on."

"Yes, one of the members of Camera Obscura mentioned how they were listening to a lot of Afro-pop," I recall.

" Lee-the drummer. If you listen, the song ' Every Weekday' has some nice Afro pop beat in it," Francis sings out a few notes of the song from the band's latest album, Desire Lines.

As a band manager, he claims no creative input-just says that he points out the tea kettle and shuts the door and "let's them get to it." But it's obvious he has an ear for sound and I was keen to hear his take on the city's newest voices.

"Well, I'm not great at seeing three different bands in one night-life is too short for me to do that now," and he stares at me, knowingly. The night before, I went out to three different venues and heard three very different bands: a traditional Celtic folk band, a rather unique and moody alt rock trio, and a jumpy Scottish hip hop ensemble. So, not your typical Saturday night.

"But check out Aaron Wright," he offers. "He lives in Edinburgh but comes to Glasgow to work-an amazing talent. He's someone you should be aware of.

Naturally, a number of Edinburgh musicians (like Frightened Rabbit) end up playing and recording, or even living in Glasgow. It's a bigger city, with more venues, and according to one guitarist I spoke with, has much better crowds.

Francis agrees, "I have a sister in Edinburgh who comes to Glasgow and says the shopkeepers talk to her and her children in a way they just don't do over in Edinburgh."

The friendliness of Glasgwegians is evident, even to a short-term visitor like me.

"There is a friendliness here-an old socialist "we're in it together" thing," and then Francis tells me about an upcoming Scottish film, made by Felipe Bustos Sierra. Nae Paseran tells the story of a nearby factory in East Kilbride, where in the 1970's, workers blocked munitions intended for Chilean dictator Pinochet.

"So Felipe found these old workers-now pushing 80, and he interviewed them-just these guys in the west of Scotland, working men, doing the right thing, taking their stand, and nobody would know about this if he hadn't shone a light on it."

There's no question that Glasgow's history of labor and the post-industrial present are an imperative force behind the music, film, and art that comes out of this city. Francis worries that the digital age might be changing that culture.

"It's almost as if this mentality of us being bred out of us. We are getting distracted with crap and gadgets. You know, there's atrocities carried out in our names-but meanwhile, we're concentrating on the latest operating system of iPhones. In less enlightened times, when information was harder to come by, these people were informed and they took a stance-everyone needs to see this film. There is a thing in Glasgow-there's a reason why Tories don't get MPs in Scotland."

And this is the very reason Francis Macdonald loves his city. Glasgow is friendly, it's real, and in many ways, it's beautiful.

"I like the sense of humor, here-I like how people interact in a down-to-earth manner. I think the city has nice architecture. Glaswegians forget that because they don't look up enough to notice it. It's only been the last few years I've fully realized that this was going to always be my home-I've come to celebrate this city and am pleased with it."

But Glasgow is not all smiles and laughs and nice architecture, and Francis knows this too well. The city's reputation for hard lives and hard times dates back to the industrial revolution and the epic shipbuilding enterprise that dried up decades ago. Persistent high rates of unemployment, poor quality housing estates, and cultural alienation contribute to the lowest life expectancy in the United Kingdom and one the highest mortality rates in the European Union.

In a way, the city's massive music culture may serve as a sort of self-administered urban therapy.

On their just-released album Nobody Seen Nothing, Hector Bizerk's lead singer Louie poignantly raps, "I was two years old at my mother's eighteenth."

"Is that true?" I ask him, on a phone call following his live show on the basement stage of Glasgow club Stereo.

"Yes, it is," he says, and tells me about his own life, growing up in Glasgow's less-than glamorous East End, "You really see the bottom of the ladder in Britain. We used to be the second city of the empire-shipbuilding and all that, but now it's just empty docks. It's a tired city, and some of the stories we tell reflect on that. When I rap, it's about my social surroundings."

As Glasgow bands go, Hector Bizerk is a kind of amazing phenomenon, with Louie rhyming his meaningful lyrics in a pronounced Glaswegian flourish, while Audrey Tait punches her drums with such intense ferocity, she makes the amps jealous. As musical energy goes, Hector Bizerk is the utter opposite of the baroque pop of Belle and Sebastian-but both bands call this city home, and both bands put on an incomparable live show.

Louie says it's all about the crowds in Glasgow, "There's an honesty here. I think in London, or Paris or Milan or something, people think music is a bit more glamorous, so the music shows are more pretentious. You know? People are afraid to let themselves go in case a lock of hair falls out of place, but in Glasgow, people are more down to Earth and real. The crowd will give you something back. Rather than standing static and analyzing everything you're doing, in Glasgow the crowd comes on that journey with you. Glasgow is an open city."

Indeed. I experienced that openness firsthand in the thumping throngs and camaraderie and everyone singing along with Hector Bizerk, "Well I noticed that at your show," I tell Louie, "The crowd knew all your lyrics and they were right there with you. It was like you were having a conversation."

"We certainly have a relationship with the audience. Glasgow's our home and maybe the people of Glasgow agree with what we're saying and enjoy the music we're making. Perhaps people feel that it's reflective of their circumstances or their opinions, but it's also quite overwhelming for us to play to an audience like that."

This kind of modesty is constant among Glasgow's musicians-nobody ever wants to blow their own horn too much. Louie adds, "We're not out to get rich or famous-we just make music we enjoy and if other people enjoy it as well, then it's an added bonus."

So what's his ultimate goal, then?

"Creative sustainability." The chance to keep on making their music-in this case, a unique and very Scottish brand of hip hop.

"Well, we just make music-it's for other people to pigeonhole us. Hip hop is a cornerstone of my life, but the band can offer more than that, so it's like a microcosm of the rest of the musical community: there's syncopated rhythms and elements of punk, ska, reggae and rock. I love new cultures and places that open your mind. That's been a guiding star in my life growing up. It's nice to be well-traveled, but in your mind, too."

Like the city of Glasgow, Hector Bizerk's mass appeal may lie in the universal emotion of their music while at the same time, offering something that exists nowhere else.

"I think we're bringing something that's genuinely unique. I know every band feels that, but you saw us. We are not some two-bob band where we're just repeating what others are doing. We are putting out different flavors-making our own recipe. It's our own acquired taste, and other people are enjoying it."

They are enjoying it-and I enjoyed it, too. As an avid listener to Glasgow bands, Hector Bizerk took me by surprise.

"We are definitely one of the most alternative bands in Britain," Louie states plainly over the phone, then goes on to highlight the great diversity of Glasgow's music scene.

"Anything you're looking for, we have-traditional, classical, rock, blues, hiphop-you can find it in Glasgow." Like Francis, Louie loves his city, even rapping this backhanded tribute to Glasgow: Sometimes you're bringing out the very worst in me.

There's a tangible pride among Glaswegians, and a definite solidarity among the many musicians that call this place home. "We have a plethora of talented, native people-architects, artists, bands-across the board," explains Louie. "We always seem to have loads of stuff going on and all of this creative industry, so we seem to really prosper. But one of our greatest exports is our music-we take it elsewhere."

Glasgow's music has definitely gone global, from the city's earliest immigrants into the present day-the night I was hopping from club to club in Glasgow, the city's newest pop band Chvrches was performing in my very own city of Washington, DC.

A friend of mine from Twitter, Camera Obscura's part-time trumpet player Nigel Baillie tried explaining this great Scottish paradox, "Scots travel-they can't wait to get away and so they travel all over the world. But when they're away, they miss Scotland and end up singing about it."

Nigel and I both share a love for travel, and after years of back-and-forth messaging on Twitter, it was great to finally meet him in person in his own city. Like Francis and Louie, Nigel is reluctant to pin Glasgow's music scene to one specific thing.

"There's the rain, of course. And there is a kind of melancholic and depressive sensibility, I guess," he muses, "We have all these artists, musicians, poets, and inventors-so I guess we're always striving for this utopia. There's something about the Scots wanting to get out and explore."

An avid traveler, Nigel has toured the world on his own, and as a musician. He tells me stories of driving across America's empty expanse with Camera Obscura, of hanging out in Oslo hotel rooms, and playing with Belle and Sebastian in London.

I have listened to Nigel's music again and again, with his brassy background strains and there's something magical about finally connecting an actual person and neighborhood to a handful of tracks on my iPod.

Because this city is more than a list of in bands versus old bands, or some specific spelled-out style-but it remains a megaphone of music, blaring loud and clear, from Glasgow record shops and dark basement clubs out into the likes of Sauchiehall Street. For a few nights in September, I was able to feel a part of it all, surrounded by the cool kids in this cool town, and now that I've gone, I won't ever stop listening to Glasgow. Because this is the music I like, from a city I like, and sung by some of the best folk in Scotland.

And Nigel doesn't think I'm exaggerating, either. He knows it better than I, and as he explains it to me, "Other than getting married and having kids, the most important thing I've done in my life is to be a part of this music, right here."

One of my 21 for 2021, Lizzie Reid is a singer-songwriter emerging from Glasgow's always fertile music scene. Signed to the Seven Four Seven Six label, home to the likes of Matt Maltese and Matilda Mann, Lizzie has recently released her debut EP, Cubicle. The singles that preceded the EP's release have garnered air-play and acclaim from the likes of 6Music and Radio One, as well as seeing Lizzie perform for acclaimed online platform, La Blogotheque.

Lizzie's music in many ways feels like a meeting of worlds, these are undeniably folk-songs, yet Lizzie's take is distinctly modern and urban, tackling universal themes of love, loss and heartache, and shaping them into the busy streets and bars of Scotland's largest city. Much of the record was written off the back of a break-up, and find Lizzie coming to terms with themes of sexuality, self-worth and mental health. Cubicle, recorded in Lizzie's home with the help of producer, Oli Barton-Wood, was completed just days before the first UK nationwide lockdown. It gives the introverted and gentle sounds of Cubicle a certain resonance; while the world around her descended into chaos, Lizzie was finding a way to make sense of her own inward-glancing thoughts. Musically, the record is a deceptively intricate affair, while often sticking close to the singer-songwriter template, there's plenty of room for exploration too, from the jazzy-edges of Been Thinking About You, reminiscent of Margaret Glaspy's fantastic album Devotion, to the bar-room sway of stand-out moment, Seamless. The whole record comes to a sense of conclusion on the title track, where Lizzie seems to bump into her ex and her new partner, and finds a crack in the fog of confusion, "there's something kind of sweet about being strangers again, maybe we could start this over? But I don't even know you anymore", before, to a backing of violin and crashing drums, the whole thing reaches a rich crescendo, perhaps still tinged with sadness but bristling with hope for a better future. A record full of honesty, warmth and humanity, Cubicle feels both deeply personal and ready to resonate with anyone who's known love, lust, heartache and everything in between: which should just about mean everyone is going to fall for this most magical of records.
FTR: For those who don't know who is Lizzie Reid?
I am a singer/songwriter from Glasgow who has been playing on the Glasgow music scene for a good few years now. I've played in many bands here and now have finally started to release my own music!
FTR: What can you remember about your first show?
I remember the first show I played as a solo artist. It was in a wee venue in Glasgow called The Glad Café. The nerves were overwhelming. I felt so high and happy afterwards though and I knew I wanted to do this with my life. I still get those same nerves now and I'm not sure I'll ever lose that.
FTR: Why do you make music? Why not another art form?
Music was always a true love of mine. I didn't really have any interest in other art forms when I was in school but I often find myself thinking about acting. I adore film and I find acting and actors very interesting. But music will always be my true love!
FTR: What can people expect from the Lizzie Reid live show?
If I'm playing on my own, you should expect a very intimate and melancholic show. I always try and keep my live shows as engaging as possible, which is always a fun challenge when it's just you and a guitar. If I'm playing with my band I tend to feel the atmosphere exciting, moody and it will always kick off at some point!
FTR: What's next for Lizzie Reid?
This year is hopefully going to be filled with writing, recording, gigging and releasing more music. I'm feeling hopeful!

PJ Harvey - A Perfect Day Elise
I love everything about this song. It makes me screw up my face and head-bang every time. I love how driving it is and how the production is so dark and dirty.
Julia Jacklin - Body
This song is so heart wrenching and understated. The story telling is just beautiful and keeps me hanging on her every word every time.
Nilufer Yanya - Baby
I'm not sure what it is about Nilufer Yanya but I feel a real warmth every time I listen to her music. Baby Luv makes me have a wee cry even though it maybe doesn't sound like the stereotypical song you'd cry to.
LUMP - Rolling Thunder
I remember listening to this whole album for the first time and thinking it was the best collection of songs I had ever heard. I love the dynamic build in this particular track and the production really accentuates the darkness in Laura Marling's voice.
Villagers - 27 Strangers
Villagers are one of my favourite live acts, having seen them about 6 times. I used to sing this song with my friends and I hold those memories close to my heart. Cubicle EP is out now via Seven Four Seven Six. Click HERE for more information on Lizzie Reid.
Success! You're on the list.

At La Chunky we understand that recording artists and bands have many different requirements and budgets.

For this reason we would prefer to meet potential clients to discuss how we can tailor the recording session to meet their needs within their budgets.

La Chunky is a high end studio and we have a treasure trove of vintage recording kit and microphones at our disposal. We recognise that in today's straitened times bands and recording artists are looking for the best possible value when they embarking on a recording project, whether it's a single, EP, album or demo, so unlike many studios we make no additional charge for the use of our rarest and most valuable instruments, amps and recording equipment.

We encourage you to contact us directly to discuss your project, so that we can work out a budget and recording plan that will work for you.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Annual folk, roots and world music festival

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
"If there's one thing that makes wintertime in Glasgow great then it's Celtic Connections." The Guardian

Glasgow's annual folk, roots and world music festival celebrates its connections to cultures across the globe. From 20 January - 6 February 2022, over 2,100 musicians from around the world bring the city to life for 18 days. During that time, there are concerts, ceilidhs, talks, art exhibitions, workshops, and free events.

Creative Director Donald Shaw programmes more than 300 events across multiple genres of music. The festival is renowned for its ability to bring together one-off line-ups for special collaborative shows. The camaraderie between musicians continues late into the night at the Festival Club - home to legendary musical collaborations and spontaneous sessions.

"There are situations that you'll see where people are playing that you'll never see again, or if you do, it's because it worked here first." Donald Shaw, Creative Director

The festival has also curated key parts of the cultural programme for major international events, including:

Ryder Cup Chicago

Ryder Cup Gleneagles

London 2012 Olympics

Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games

European Championships 2018

In 2015 the festival won the Art and Culture Award at the Inspiring City Awards ceremony. The event was organised by the Herald and Glasgow Chamber of Commerce in association with People Make Glasgow. The awards were created to celebrate the people and organisations that make Glasgow great.

In 2021, due to Covid-19, the festival went online for the very first time. Over 100,000 people tuned in from 65 countries to watch over 10.5 million minutes of content across 19 days.
