14+ (under 16s with an adult)
Squid have come a long way since forming in 2016 as an instrumental jazz
band for a monthly night in Brighton whilst living in cheap rented
accommodation across the Sussex coast as they finished their studies. The
band started expressing influences from outsider punk to Fourth World, and
became known for their chaotic and increasingly incendiary live shows. The
band relocated to London to make the most of their burgeoning reputation,
and having heard them at the Brixton institution The Windmill, producer Dan
Carey invited them to his studio; releasing a string of fine singles on
Speedy Wunderground and the Town Centre EP (2019) which cemented their
reputation. An album deal with visionary label Warp followed, and the hype
grew further.
Their debut album Bright Green Field (2021) arrived as the world was
starting to open up after the pandemic and they broke into the top 5 in the
UK chart. In 2023 they released their sophomore album, the brooding O
Monolith, which took the band all over the world and broke new ground that
hardly seemed possible five years prior. Like the bravest sophomore albums,
O Monolith charted a trajectory beyond their breakthrough sound, taking the
band towards an experimental career ahead. Fans growing with them,
disseminated alternative versions of songs and demos in setlists and NTS
sessions.
Now on their third album, Cowards, the English art rock quintet extend and
explore textures of folk, kosmische, psychedelia, jazz and electronics –
hovering at 30,000 feet above distinct tales of human evil:
apophenia-tinged songs punched by vantablack comedy.
Squid are Louis Borlase, Arthur Leadbetter, Laurie Nankivell ,Anton Pearson
and Ollie Judge
Why do we have a restoration Levy?
Put very simply, our restoration levy is an additional charge added to your ticket price which is directly invested back into the venue. This money is used for critical maintenance, repairs, and preservation efforts to ensure the long-term sustainability of the building.
As the 3rd oldest church building in Glasgow, dating back to 1836, Saint Luke's requires ongoing care and special restoration to maintain its historic character and facilities. This levy will enable us to fund essential projects that will safeguard the venue's future as a vibrant hub for live music and community events.
If you would like to be kept up to date on progress with how we are using this fund then please follow us on social media @stlukesglasgow, and sign up to our mailing list where we will send out quarterly updates on the improvements that your donations are helping us make.
