Atlas : Empire is a Post/Alt.Rock band based in Glasgow, UK.
Since their inception in 2011, the band has continually evolved & expanded their sonic landscape, never simply content to regurgitate the same sounds over & over.
This desire for musical evolution has seen Atlas : Empire showcase their unique mix of alternative genres to live audiences throughout the UK, Europe, Ukraine & Canada, sharing stages with a diverse array of artists, including...
The Appleseed Cast, Tiny Moving Parts, O’Brother, Wintersleep, Microwave, Good Tiger, The Dear Hunter, Closure In Moscow, Nothing & October Drift.
In 2023, Atlas : Empire released their Sophomore album, ‘Everything Is Temporary’ - a record on which the band focused their expansive & structurally complex Progressive Rock into a more streamlined & vocally driven sound, fusing Post-Rock/Shoegaze textures with the energy of late 90s & early 00s Alt.Rock & 2nd wave Emo.
In 2025, Atlas : Empire returned with ‘Happy As Lazarus’ & ‘Rêverie’
Mixed by Tom Peters (Vennart, Lakes, A Burial At Sea) & mastered by Ed Woods (The XCerts, Reuben, VUKOVI) both tracks offer unique snapshots of A:E’s ever-evolving sound. Incorporating prominent use of Bass synths, glacial electronics & fusing these with dreamy, Shoegaze-influenced guitar textures, all whilst retaining the Alt.Rock immediacy of their last album - these new songs serve as a dynamic introduction to the next chapter of Atlas : Empire.

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND...
Join us at the Source for a night of social deduction and hidden role party games! Have a few drinks and try and lie your way to victory, in a game for up to 50 players!
This game is truly for everyone and anyone who wants to join.... a great way to meet new people, make new friends and solidify that new relationship by lying to them 😅 Our host with the most, Joe Desborough, will be introducing us to each other and the game and guiding us through the rules!
Come on your own or as a group... we will all be one big happy family by the end... or ... it will end like a game of monopoly and friendships will be ruined forever. Either way, it’ll be great crack! 🤣
BASIC RULES:
In our main game, “Two Rooms and a Boom”, there are two teams: The Red Team and the Blue Team.
The Blue Team has a President.
The Red Team has a Bomber.
Players are equally distributed between two rooms (Band Room and Front Room).
The game consists of three to five timed rounds.
At the end of each round, some players will be swapped into opposing rooms.
If the Red Team’s Bomber is in the same room as the President at the end of the game, then the Red Team wins; otherwise the Blue Team wins. Lying is heavily encouraged.
And the game just gets sillier and sillier as we go on... 🤪
🚪Doors: 7pm
🎲 Game will begin at 8pm (after everyone has had the chance to have a bev or two!)
🎟Participation fee of £5 on the door
⏰ Open til late!
THIS SATURDAY
Fraser Morgan; a rapidly up and coming Folk-Punk/Singer-Songwriter who’s known for their relentless gigging and for bringing to the stage high levels of passion, energy, and showmanship.
Whether he’s playing solo or with his band “Fraser Morgan and the Great Catastrophes”, Fraser keeps the crowd on their toes and captivated, delivering a performance that is often compared to the likes of Ren, Frank Turner and Jamie T.
+ Them Noisy Neighbours
Born out of a shared sense of rebellion and a refusal to go quietly into middle age, Brad, Ralf and Chris are ‘Them Noisy Neighbours’ – a loud, unapologetic antidote to the mid-life crisis. Playing only originals, they have carved out a sound that’s both nostalgic and fiercely current. In 2025, the band had a tough year; losing their beloved bandmate Dave and seeing Martin move on, but the band has re-emerged as a power trio, tighter and louder than ever. With driving guitar riffs and punchy lyrics, they continue to prove that it’s never too late to turn up the volume. + 21 Melville Street
3 piece acoustic folk punk from south west Scotland!

TONIGHT 😍
CARSICK -
2023 has seen Salisbury genre-hoppers CARSICK make a proper name for themselves; they’ve embarked on a two-month-long UK/EU headline tour, recorded a live session at the BBC’s Maida Vale, signed to Alcopop! Records, dropped their debut EP ‘Drunk Hymns’, and solidified their growing reputation as one of the UK’s most energetic, unpredictable, and all-around wild live acts. Their music - a blend of raw punk, 90s-inspired indie-rock, UK hip-hop, and irresistible electronic elements - is all about living for the weekend; about the desperate chaos of small-town nightlife and about forgetting what happened last night. Support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6 Music, John Kennedy on Radio X, and Tom Robinson has ensured that their “anthems for the pissed-up and pissed-off” are reaching an ever-expanding cult following. If the band are to be believed, this is the downfall of British music at terminal velocity. Get on board while you can.
Press Quotes:
“These guys have fully, fully, just absolutely exploded my brain with their first tune and I love it.” - James Threlfall, BBC Introducing in the West
“What a great band... ‘Muzzle’ is a memorable slice of life in the raw.” - Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6 Music
“That’s nice, that’s a little earworm... Big fan of that.” - Isaac Holman (Slaves/Baby Dave), Bangers and Trash Radio
“Trust me, I’ve heard worse.” - John the security guard, The Rockhouse, Andover

Luke Telford known by his stage name I am Spartacus, is an English songwriter born in the shadow of Sellafield, in Cumbria.
Raised on a healthy diet of Bowie, Van Morrison and The Beatles he picked up the guitar at an early stage. Hampered by broken hearts and broken bones, his style somewhat developed to overcome the obstacles he faced in life.
His musical style is hard to place, but incorporates elements of skag, bone and pikey-indie.
Everybody’s 3rd favourite member of Reptilians, dusts off his battered acoustic to play some long forgotten songs.
+ Foster, Moran and Moss
With tight three-part harmonies, beautifully crafted melodies and accomplished musicianship, Dawn, Christian and Pete create an intimate and distinctive sound that transcends boundaries. Listeners are drawn to their relatable lyrics and the way their voices merge in seamless harmony, carrying both tenderness and strength.
+ Frazer Johnston is the up-and-coming face of the Cumbrian music scene.
In 2024 he started a four piece indie rock band called “the tomorrow.”
The Tomorrow quickly gained 100s of followers and are selling out gigs all over the UK.
