A couple more mini Glasgowbury Reviews ...

Here Comes the Landed Gentry
HCTLG took to the ‘Spurs of Rock’ stage with their usual flair, sporting suits and ties, and a very bluesy, rockabilly brand of garage rock. Granted they’ve only been together for three or four months, but this reviewer couldn’t work out whether their heavily referential sound is more dated than retro.

Cutaways
Cutaways are a three-piece indie-pop group with a good dose of quirk. They recall the Ting Tings with their energetic frivolity and with the sheer strength of their tunes. The tent is nearing capacity, and the crowd are appreciative, enjoying the on-stage banter. This band is definitely finding their voice, and they are all the more enjoyable to watch because of it. Go see them soon.
