Also on the bill is Glasgow’s foremost pop/punk (verging on emo) diamonds The Gap Year Riot, oozing with confidence and putting on a supremely polished show. Catchy highlights such as ‘Hush Hush’ and ‘Stop Talking Start Listening’ enhance the commercial appeal they have been establishing of late - THE LIST MAGAZINE
Followed up by Gap Year Riot! playing in their energetic style that is fast becoming their trademark. The crowd weren't afraid to dance along to Gap Year Riot!'s upbeat tunes which contributed to the great atmosphere. All in all another memorable night - GENUINE PR
Followed by The Gap Year Riot!, a Glasgow five-piece who play piano-infused pop-punk to a very high standard. With the crowd singing along to most of their songs, it was obvious that many have been following the band for some time. With musical influences lying somewhere between Fall out Boy and Elliot Minor, the Glasgow boys put on a great show. Throwing Shapes was a clear set highlight from its opening piano melody to its hell-for-leather finale. Other high points included Stop Talking Start Listening, a veritable tour de force of pop-rock fun, and Hush Hush, a straight-up pop-punk anthem hercules mandarin
