Valentines Special

Friday 15th of Febuary


The Wee Red Bar
Edinburgh Art College,
Lauriston Place
Edinburgh EH3 9DF

11pm to 3am - £4 entry

After a period of intensive festive reflection/gluttony/sloth, Unpop is back again to cajole your indie pop dancing feet onto the floor of the Wee Red Bar. As it falls on Friday the 15th of February, consider it a Valentine's Day hangover special. Soothe your singleton nature with a cathartic dance to "The Boy With The Thorn In His Side", or - if you're part of a smug couple - join your partner for a feet-staring boogie to The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart and The Magnetic Fields.

(Half) joking aside, you will have an ace time. You will hear songs you know and songs you mightn't have heard before. They will all be awesome!

We play pop hits of the highest order, inspired by cultural phenomena such as Glasgow's National Pop League, Indietracks and the C86 compilation.

Expect to hear:

Belle & Sebastian, Felt, Hefner, The Clean, Orange Juice, Kenickie, Jens Lekman, 'Allo Darlin', Tullycraft, The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, Pavement, Talulah Gosh, Plastic Bertrand, The Aislers Set, A Smile And A Ribbon, The Gingham Mittens, The Magnetic Fields, The Pastels, 'Everywhere', Bearsuit, Los Campesinos!, Eux Autres, Standard Fare, Bis, The Smiths, ballboy, Helen Love, The Spook School, Pulp, The Bobby McGees, The Hidden Cameras and many, many more.

Come early to get a copy of our ever-popular limited edition artifact that is the Unpop mixtape, as well as free Unpop pin badges and (largely homemade) cakes!
