Randolph's Leap announce Glasgow all-dayer line-up

Feature by News Team | 30 Aug 2016

Glasgow indie-pop outfit Randolph's Leap have revealed the line-up for their latest I Can't Dance To This Music all-dayer in Glasgow this October

The fourth iteration of the mini-festival features music from 2015 Scottish Album of the Year winner Kathryn Joseph, indie-folk luminary James Yorkston and thrash-pop three-piece Garden of Elks. Also on the bill alongside Randolph's Leap are college rock-inspired Edinburgh four-piece Book Group, Glasgow dream-poppers Life Model and Ette – the new project from Teen Canteen's Carla Easton.

Alongside the music line-up is a comedy selection featuring a host of members of the Glasgow comedy collective CHUNKS. Gemma Flynn, Richard Brown and Nev are all on the bill, alongside Adam Todd and Niall McCamley of The Spook School, while poetry is provided by Glasgow performance poet Sam Small.

Randolph's Leap frontman Adam Ross described the bill: "The ICDTTM gigs have been some of the best shows we’ve ever played. It’s great to be able to hand-pick the line-up and there’s always a really fun atmosphere with comedians filling in the breaks between bands.

"The events have gradually been growing in size since the first one in 2014 and the hall in Maryhill looks like a smashing room. We've booked some amazing bands in the past, such as Withered Hand, Adam Stafford, Viking Moses, Ballboy, Kid Canaveral and BMX Bandits. I'm tremendously pleased with the line-up for number 4. So come and join us. I'll be the guy grinning like an idiot."

The ICDTTM all-dayer follows a string of dates for Randolph's Leap across northern Scotland in September with Spare Snare, Duke Special and Yorkston – details below.
