An all day, outdoors festival in the courtyard in front of venue/bar/record shop Mono in King Street, Glasgow Hey You...! aims to celebrate the culture and creativity of Glasgow and beyond, as well as providing a super-cheap great day out for music-lovers of all ages.*

 

Building on the success of last years’ sell-out event the organisers are increasing the capacity slightly and adding more bars to the barbecue outside.  For those who absolutely must spend their summers indoors there will be an extravagantly decorated Mono serving as usual, Monorail is open to discerning record buyers and browsers as ever, as are all the shops in Kings Court (your guitar, vintage clothing, skateboard and poster needs shall be catered for!), with some of Glasgow's finest Dj's playing the best summer songs they can find in their collections.

 

The Aliens
These psychedelic pop-maestro’s formed from the ashes of the Beta Band and are fronted by Lone Pigeon aka Gordon Anderson.  Now signed to EMI/Pet Rock Records, this Fife based trio are typically low-fi, humble and good-spirited regardless of the accolades coming their way: 

“One of British music’s most important bands.  Brilliant.” Dazed and Confused

“A match for the Beatles narrative song-writing, the future looks very bright for Anderson and the Aliens” Q Magazine

“Genius will always find a way to shine” Time Out

One Ensemble
Daniel Padden, previously of underground heroes Volcano The Bear, has come into his own with the One

Ensemble: experimental folk remiscent of God Speed You Black Emperor or Jack Rose.

“Strikingly beautiful at times, Padden's music truly comes from another place. Wholly unique and lush

Underground cult heroes or pop meagstars: You Decide.  Only thing for sure is that with two singles out

on label Moshi Moshi and a crop of rave reviews, the immense hardcore-inflluenced Dananananaykroyd are

gonna be something special.
