T
he most magical time of the year, just got a little bit more magical.  You may have seen we announced the latest Scottish Fiction Presents: gig via Facebook and Twitter on Thursday night.  If not, here's the official blog post promoting what we will be getting up to!  You can purchase tickets right now at this link.
Scottish Fiction Presents: A Beerjacket & Friends Christmas
Glasgow singer-songwriter extravaganza Beerjacket will be playing alongside some special guests in a very special, very Christmassy performance.  We're keeping his musical collaborators under wraps just now, but as we get closer to the night, some treats might just come unwrapped.  Needless to say we have some very exciting things up our sleeve.
Beerjacket's last album, The White Feather Trail, was received to rave reviews throughout the Scottish music press (and beyond).  Recent live shows saw Beerjacket play with Kristin Hersch (Throwing Muses / solo).  She had this to say about his music:

"No matter how much music you listen to, you rarely stumble across a musical approach that does not wear its influences on its sleeve. these songs speak in their own language."

With a new Beerjacket album waiting in the wings for release, this show will be a seasonal mix of tracks old and new.
Support comes from the wonderful Julia and the Doogans with another support act still to be announced.  Julia Doogan has one of the finest female voices in Glasgow, and with back up band of cello, flute and keyboards, the band create charming melodies that will wrap your heart in joy.  Perfect tonic for a Glasgow Christmas evening.
Taking place on Thursday 5th December at Mono Cafe Bar in Glasgow, tickets will be limited in number for a cosy intimate evening, and will be priced at a bargain £5.  Tickets are currently onsale here.
