We are so excited to announce our new project: (in)dustry
(in)dustry is a nine-month remote programme for five creatives aged 18-25 (or up to 30 if d/Deaf, neurodivergent or Disabled), based outside Scotland’s central belt (Glasgow and Edinburgh).
The project supports participants to develop sustainable business ideas and freelance practices within the music industries. This can include, but is not limited to, areas such as design, videography, photography, music management, promotion, events, booking, record labels, live sound, and not-for-profit work.
Participants will receive:
-A £2,000 bursary to support them.
-Mentorship from industry professionals
-Support from the anam creative team
-Regular group reflection sessions supporting collaboration, skill-sharing and community building
Through this participants will gain real-world insight into the processes of running a creative business or sustaining freelance work in the music industries.
This is for:
-Young people who have pre-existing ideas or some experience (doesn’t have to be extensive) in behind the scenes music industry roles and will benefit from our support.
-Musicians who are keen to develop side hustles to support their music careers.
-Creatives who love music and want to work within the sector.
-Individuals who actively want to collaborate and work with others.
This project is anchored in collaboration, led through regular remote meetups where the five selected participants will support each other’s development, creating a Scotland wide collective and support network.
This project is funded by @youthmusicuk

Myself and Mairi first met a few years ago as part of the @anam__creative music collab where we made a wild album combining about five different genres. This is what makes this such a special gig, not only to be reunited with Mairi, but also to be hosted by anam AND be screening visuals created by anam’s own Michiel Turner
Truly not one to be missed!

We’re so excited to have the incredible Mairi Sutherland opening for Grace Stewart-Skinner at the Glad next Thursday. We first met both Mairi and Grace on our 2023 music collab, and we’re so buzzing to bring them together for this extra special show ✨💞
Described as having the ‘allure of siren song’, Mairi is a captivating contemporary folk artist from Perth, Scotland, known for her woven compositions, distinctive, intricate guitar style and soulful vocals. Drawing influence from the likes of Laura Marling, Fleet Foxes and Focus, her music blends open tunings and folk-rooted melodies with complexities inspired by the prog rock that captivated her as a child. Her lyrics, often playfully profound, delve whimsically into her self-critical nature.

Here’s another excerpt from @laueav ’s visual album for Auchie’s Spikkin’ Auchie which will be screened alongside the performance at the Glad on the 7th of May. Tickets are still available via the link in our bio
‘Auchies Spikkin’ Auchie’ effortlessly intertwines field recorded conversations with Grace’s new compositions to create an ethnomusicological postcard of her wee home village, Avoch. Grace is a clàrsach player, composer, performer and ethnologist belonging to the Black Isle and is deeply rooted in the Scottish trad scene. She is joined on stage by @rose.fiddle , @macrhonald and @ewamakesmusic
We’re delighted to announce that we’ll be hosting the Glasgow gig of Grace Stewart-Skinner’s tour of her debut album, ‘Auchie’s Spikkin’ Auchie’. Capturing Avoch’s unique dialect of Scots and local stories, it is an innovative, moving, and beautiful celebration of linguistic and cultural heritage. Grace’s show effortlessly intertwines field recorded conversations with her new compositions to create an ethnomusicological postcard of her wee home village, Avoch. Grace will be joined on stage by Rose Logan on fiddles, Rhona MacDonald on double bass and Ewa Adamiec on drum kit. This live performance will be accompanied by stunning visuals created by Michiel Turner, and the incredible Mairi Sutherland will be joining as support.
We first met both Grace and Mairi as commissioned artists on our 2023 music collab, and it’s been such a joy to see them go from strength to strength and make such an impact on Scotland’s music scene. We’re very excited to bring them together on this bill for a night of innovative and experimental folk and trad music.
This will be an intimate seated gig held at the Glad Cafe, and you can get your ticket now via the link in our bio x
