Trad band Gnoss performed a live gig on an open-top bus through Glasgow, thanks to Innis & Gunn, as part of their sponsorship of the Celtic Connections festival.
Saturday’s jig on jig off service ferried folk fans between Innis & Gunns taprooms on West Nile Street and Ashton Lane, with Glasgow-based four-piece and Celtic Connections favourites Gnoss performing sets at both venues, as well as during the bus ride in-between.
The band’s guitarist and vocalist Aidan Moodie said: “What a laugh, playing our music round the streets of Glasgow! We’ve been locked in the studio recording some new tunes, so it was great to get outside for a breath of fresh air. Even if it was Baltic.”
Dougal Sharp, master brewer and founder of Innis & Gunn, added: “We’re all about good beer for good folk! While there’s plenty of chatter about Dry January, we wanted to start 2025 with a bang, and what better way to do it than by partnering with Celtic Connections?
“It’s a standout moment in Scotland’s cultural calendar, and we’re proud to be the headline partner.”
