Ray Aggs presents distinctive guitar work, electronic beats and lyrical mantras.
Join us in celebrating our 50th anniversary with a concert by
Ray Aggs.
Ray Aggs is a Glasgow-based multi-instrumentalist and songwriter. Best known for their distinctive guitar work influenced by West African highlife and post-punk, they also sing and play violin.
Aggs, a specialist in euphoric post-punk, has gained international recognition with collaborative touring projects
Trash Kit,
Shopping and
Sacred Paws. Creating zines and coordinating workshops encouraging women, non-binary people and people of colour to form bands, Aggs has invigorated the DIY scene in the UK. Aggs released a solo album on Lost Map Records as part of the Visitations residency in 2019 and self-released
//Tape 1// in 2020. Both releases feature their signature hybrid post-punk/highlife inspirations stripped down to new minimal extremes. Pulsating electronic beats, cool recited lyrical mantras and spindly guitar lines abound in this life-affirming music that speaks directly to your heart.
