   About Vic Galloway

I'm on the Radio every Monday 8.05 til 10pm BBC Radio Scotland and 12 Midnight til 2am Every Wednesday night / Thursday morning BBC Radio 1 - 'BBC Introducing in Scotland with Vic Galloway' - check out the cutting edge of new music from Scotland and beyond!

After buying a pile of Adam & The Ants records as a wee boy, I launched myself head-first into punk rock and new wave after witnessing my first live concert by The Damned in 1985, and as the obsession grew so did the record collection.

On leaving school, I immersed myself in rock'n'roll and all the trimmings! I formed a band, got into recording and performing music and also managed to busk my way around Europe for 6 months! I currently write, perform and produce music on my own, and will get some new stuff online at some point soon.

I've worked in the other side of the music industry - writing for fanzines, working as a venue lighting director in Edinburgh, helping to set up and develop independent labels, and working as press and radio promoter. My journey into Radio wasn't planned, so when prompted to make a tape for this new regional BBC Radio 1 show I obliged and to my surprise, got the job... That was over 10 years ago - phew! Check www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/vicgalloway and www.bbc.co.uk/introducing

I'm also lucky enough to do another new-music show on BBC Radio Scotland. This happens every Monday at 8.05pm. Check www.bbc.co.uk/vicgalloway

You'll occasionally see me on the TV too, as I've presented a series of 'The Music Show' and 4 different years of BBC coverage at 'T in the Park', as well as bits for Channel 4's 'Transmission' etc.

I also like to get out and DJ in other clubs and student unions across the UK and abroad when asked! If you want me to play in your place, please contact my agent, Andy Varley at Insanity Artists www.insanitygroup.com

To top it off, I do freelance work for papers, magazines and websites; and work as a Specialist Music Advisor for the Scottish Arts Council www.scottisharts.org.uk

I live in Edinburgh , like getting tattooed, eat spicy food and want World peace...

Hi Vic, don't know if you remember us from a while back as we've been away on a near-infinte hiatus since our last EP but now we're back with an album and two replacement band members (we can't tell you what we did with the other two!).


The album will be released in January and is entitled 'Ribbons, Regards and the More Machine'. There are already a few tracks from it on our myspace so check them out and let us know what you think.



Much love, tfs

Adviruz is the artist psedonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, its influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.

Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.

Don't you hate Xmas songs?  Oh...
We made one.
But only because our fantasy record label was getting really heavy about delivering some product.
It's called Xmas Rocks.
Do you see what we did there?
