About me:
ampbox is a club night running in Edinburgh and Glasgow. we’re not really too fussed about trends or genres but are passionate about good music. simply, we want to book talented bands and DJ's that we think should have the stage for you to experience and enjoy. in edinburgh we’re at the Wee Red Bar- a small venue (as the name suggests) with a great atmosphere, letting you get up close and personal with the artists. while on the west coast we're at The Glasgow School of Art- a renowned music venue in Scotland and hive of creative activity. at our glasgow venue, as well as hosting the club night, there will also be an exhibition, show casing artistic talent and projections of video pieces, animations and visuals. a well rounded audio and visual feast for your eyes and ears.
Who I'd like to meet: on the night itself the focus will be on the music, but we feel that leading up to it is a great opportunity to promote other forms of creative talent. so whatever it is you do, whether its photography, graphics, illustration or visuals, if you want to get involved, get in contact. similarly if you’re a band or DJ, or if there’s someone you think should be playing in scotland let us know and we’ll have a gander.
