Commotion Promotion has been running for 2 years now, and to celebrate we are putting together an all day event at The Rum Shack with our favourite bands.
// Sweaty Palms // Local cult heroes are headlining the event. The 4 piece whirlwind have been the epitome of the Glasgow music scene for the last 10+ years taking their manic and powerful live show across the UK and Europe. Never staying still the band are constantly evolving and moving, having released 2 albums and still providing a live show that evokes, excites and enrages you.

// The Black Lagoons // Leeds / Yorkshire based band that have a big love for Glasgow. The fuzzy 4 piece have been creating music together for years and with a debut album on the horizon have a bright future ahead of them. Dark country ballads with the ability to sweetly lead you and as easily terrify you, as they swell with dynamics and precise fury.

// St Dukes // Our good friends St Dukes are a four-piece from Glasgow, they formed in 2014 and have been gigging around since. They have a varied sound but are best described as Garage Pop Rock and are a must see live bringing an extra rawness to their live shows with their electric preformances. They are also releasing new music this year

// Vehicle // Another Leeds / Yorkshire 4 piece that enjoy coming up to Glasgow. Vehicle are the brain child of Michael Cable (formerly behind Perspex) and their music draws from the 60s and combines dark and brooding instrumentals with a neurotic storytelling. This is thoughtful guitar music with pop sensibilities.

// Isabella Strange // The most exciting young Scottish act of 2025! The 4 piece carry themselves with great confidence and maturity, Isabella Strange range from hypnotic and progressive to blunt and rugged. The questioning lyrics reach both nonchalantly and sincerely at modern day intimacy and anxiety. Another must see live!
