Cry Parrot’s Music Language Festival 2013 takes place on 6-7th Sept in various Glasgow venues featuring more Scottish creative talent. £14 gets you a weekend pass and is likely to offer excellent value for money.
BrewBog, Kelburn Garden Party, Rusty Hip… I mean, if you blink these days you’ve probably missed another Scottish underground music party. That’s not even counting the music industry ones likes goNORTH. The scene has arguably never been healthier.
Are you ready for another?
CRY PARROT are promoting the Music Language Festival 2013. The name has nothing to do with languages and everything to do with a loose banner under which various artists will congregate.
In – where else – GLASGOW over two days from 6th and 7th of September.

ABOUT:
Cry Parrot’s annual Music Language Festival returns for it’s 3rd year, and its set to be the biggest one yet…
This year’s line-up consists of a selection of acts hand-picked from Scotland’s hugely diverse underground music scene. Taking in everything from folk to noise, hip-hop to techno and jazz to lo-fi pop, the line-up aims to present the most interesting, thought-provoking and esoteric new music being made in Scotland right now.
Now in it’s 3rd year, the festival presents 35 live music acts across a slew of Glasgow-based locations. From artist-lead warehouses, cafes, community centres and rave spaces to outdoor guerilla style gigs (presented in collaboration with Winning Sperm Party) we aim to present music in spaces that are as stimulating as the music itself.
Music Language Festival is a non-profit, no-budget festival produced and curated by independent event organizers Cry Parrot.
PRESS QUOTES:

“The efforts to produce something all-encompassing, challenging and uniquely entertaining have once more paid off… Music Language’s eclecticism was a welcome source of endless fascination. More please.” – The List
