McChuills Bank Holiday Psych Fest

As part of this year's Merchant City Festival, we are absolutely buzzing to be hosting the first ever McChuills Bank Holiday Psyche Fest.

Running all day long, the event has a stellar line-up of both bands and DJs, right from the 1pm kick-off all the way through to the end of the night.

Headliners The Paris Match are a London-based band who blend classic guitar-pop influences with a swinging backbeat, bouncing basslines and piercing saxophone, and have been attracting an ever-growing following in London and Paris' underground music scenes since their formation in 2024.

Glasgow's own Supersun are made up of three siblings and a cousin, delivering blood-harmonies in a new Scottish youth scene. Their charming modern psych-pop draws equally from the rhythms of the '90s and the melodies of the '60s to create something uniquely nostalgic yet radically new.

When Sisters first hit the Liverpool scene with their weepy-ethereal-grunge-rock it didn't take them long to win over audience members, local press, and promoters. In only one year of being a band they have had their tracks played on BBC radio, headlined Rough Trade, and completed an east coast tour in America.

Known for "neo songs under hazy lighting", The Violets are an independent four-piece from Glasgow painting a modern colour over the Scottish sound.

Tangled Up In Dylan is a brand new tribute to the music of Bob Dylan, performed by the outrageously talented Clark Gilmour, dipping in and out of the vast catalogue of the Nobel Prize winner, from his folk beginnings all the way through to his electric recordings and beyond.

If all that wasn't enough, there's also DJ support from up and coming party monsters Cabbage and two of McChuill's most psyched-up residents, the immense Neil MacInnes and Robert Kelly.

So get yrself down, make sure yr early and get yr groove on. You know it makes sense.
