Tom McGuire & the Brassholes

Glasgow funk and soul band Tom McGuire & the Brassholes play at Brudenell Social Club in Leeds, a live music venue that began as a working men's club and mainly hosts pop, rock and indie concerts.

Tom McGuire & the Brassholes are a funk and soul band from Glasgow who started out busking on the city's streets and later made their living playing bars. Their viral first single, "Ric Flair", was followed within months by an album launch with a sold-out show at the QMU in Glasgow.

Since then the act has supported Craig Charles and George Clinton, become a regular on the festival circuit with several Scottish festival headline slots, and toured across the UK and Europe. Their second album, "Stay Rad", came out alongside a sold-out debut at the Barrowlands in Glasgow, and a sold-out UK tour followed later that year. Their songs pair rich arrangements and high musicianship with classic pop sensibility, using soulful storytelling about joy, loss, frailty and celebration.

Brudenell Social Club is a live music venue and social club in Burley, Leeds, which began as a working men's club and mainly hosts pop, rock and indie concerts. The night suits listeners drawn to funk pop with soulful songwriting and tight arrangements.
