Citadels are a heavy rock / pop outfit from Paisley/Johnstone. The 3 piece are a fiery brand of thundering riffage and soaring melodies. They started in Dec '22 and have since gained a solid following in the Renfrewshire/Glasgow area, playing capacity gigs at the town's best music bar, The Keg, a stellar performance at the Paisley Food and Drink festival on the Keg sponsored by Jack Daniels stage, and played as part of a sold out show at Nice and Sleazy in August. Their first E.P "Endless Story" features the powerful namesake single along with other tracks such as the bouncy and high energy "Mythos" and jagged and angular "Monuments" aswell as the emotional acoustic and orchestral pop song "Hole in the World".
The newest release - double A Side single, with the high energy and bittersweet “Tears of Yass”, and heavy hitting dark anthem “Divinity Machine”, continues to impress both at live shows and online.

MrdB
5:00pm
MrdB hail from Paisley, Scotland. They are a 4-piece band of close friends who just love to write, record and play music
-
Billy Kinnear Singer/guitar
-
Craig Corbett Lead guitar/backing vox
-
Kenny (Simon) Mooney Bass/backing vox
-
Robert McIndewar Drums/backing vox
Formed in 2017, MrdB has created a sound that is an eclectic mix of all their favourite songs and styles. They have a rich pedigree of playing the circuit around Scotland and vary their sets to provide a mix of original and cover songs. Going by the ‘mantra’ from Mick Jagger, ‘one of the worst things that you can say on stage is….this is one of our new songs’. The band always pride themselves on putting on a show and always want to entertain, so it’s a tough ask to expect the audience to engage with a bunch of ‘new’ songs, hence, the sets are usually laced with covers
MrdB is influenced by Rock, Pop, Funk and Samba – you’ll hear a bit of everything coming through on the tracks. They want people to sing along, dance and enjoy every track
MrdB have also gained a reputation for ‘packing out the place every time they play’, and have played many support slots with the likes of GUN, Tom Hingley’s Karpets, Hugh Reed and the Velvet Underpants, Baz. M and many more. They regularly play many music festivals, such as Party at the Palace, The Bluebell Festival, Europa Music and more

In the short time we have been around we have already created a small tight knit following of loyal fans and supportive friends. The band has been snowballing and we have no plans on stopping. What started off as a fun little hobby between friends has turned into a fully fledged punk band.
