James Priestley @ Workshop, The GRV, Guthrie Street, Edinburgh, 14 June

More new parties are hitting the GRV, creating a fever and boosting the roster of clubs with Workshop - a new series of house-offs across the capital. Secret Sundaze resident James Priestley will star at the first event, supported by residents Nick Yuill (Shoot The Pump), Neelu Sarkar (Ultragroove regular) and Craig Reid. Priestley is currently working on remixing Robert Owens' latest album, strengthening his position and receiving kudos from the likes of Carl Craig and The Bug. After signing to Will Saul's Simple label in 2007, heads have been turning, and his Edinburgh debut is looking likely to be a special occasion. Although Priestley is known for his minimal house leanings, don't be too surprised when he slaps vocals, nu-disco and deep house on the menu. [Alex Burden]
