About Glasgow Music Tour Centre East
The Walking Heads Glasgow Music Tour is the essential app for music fans with a sense of adventure.
For just £0.99, download an audio tour that takes you off the beaten track to explore the city's old and new legends in the east end of Glasgow. Meet musicians, DJs, broadcasters and local people in the know. Discover why Glasgow is Britain's first UNESCO City of Music and one of the most vibrant and exhilarating music cities in the world.
The tour covers over 1 mile, 7 venues and at least 200 years of music history. There are lots of places to stop for a refreshment or have a look around at the destinations and venues on the tour. Hear interviews with the likes of Radio Scotland's Vic Galloway, Mogwai's Stuart Braithwaite, Emma Pollock from The Delgados and Jill Rodger from the Jazz Festival as well as many more famous names from the Glasgow music scene past and present.
Brought to you by the team behind Radio Magnetic, one of the UK's longest running internet radio stations, the Glasgow Music Tour takes you to the city's much loved venues old and new including the Barrowland, Old Fruitmarket, Mono, 13th Note and Britannia Panopticon. Your guide and narrator is Scottish music guru, radio presenter and DJ, Jim Gellatly.
And the music? Well, you name it… rock, pop, hip hop, indie, house, punk, reggae, electronica, classical, jazz, soul, blues, folk, techno and, from time to time, the completely unclassifiable.
The app also enables you to tweet your discoveries, get special offers from the venues, find out what's going on and call or connect with venues to book tickets for gigs.
