Astro Bloc

Gut zu wissen

14+ (under 16s with an adult) Scottish and Irish folk with bold contemporary flair Astro Bloc bring a bold new energy to the folk tradition, blending Scottish and Irish influences with adventurous contemporary sounds. Acclaimed musicians Eryn Rae, Paul Jennings, Éadaoin Ní Mhaicín and Gillie Ó Flaherty, the quartet combines soaring fiddle melodies, driving percussion and inventive arrangements that push far beyond folk’s expected boundaries. Audiences can expect a thrilling mix of tradition and innovation, where rich acoustic textures meet modern rhythmic ideas and genre-spanning creativity. Formed through collaborations within the Celtic music scene, Astro Bloc have quickly earned a reputation for dynamic, high-energy performances that feel fresh, vibrant and forward-looking. This is a chance to experience one of the most exciting new voices in contemporary folk. Why do we have a restoration Levy? This money is used for critical maintenance, repairs, and preservation efforts to ensure the long-term sustainability of the building. As the 3rd oldest church building in Glasgow, dating back to 1836, Saint Luke's requires ongoing care and special restoration to maintain its historic character and facilities. This levy will enable us to fund essential projects that will safeguard the venue's future as a vibrant hub for live music and community events. If you would like to be kept up to date on progress with how we are using this fund then please follow us on social media @stlukesglasgow, and sign up to our mailing list where we will send out quarterly updates on the improvements that your donations are helping us make.
