Glasgow bar offering free pints and the chance to discover new DJ talent

Music fans are being invited to enjoy a free pint and discover the next big thing on the Glasgow DJ scene.

The city's leading independent radio station Clyde Built Radio is teaming up with Heverlee to host a five-day pop-up to celebrate emerging DJ talent.

The free event, dubbed the 'Heverlee Mixer', launches today (October 19) will be taking over Stereo with Rubadub also on hand selling vinyl curated in partnership with Clyde Built Radio. There will also be a 'bespoke listening booth' for music fans to try before they buy.

The line-up curated by the radio station features acts from a range of genres from Italo disco and Reggae, to the sounds of Belgian New Wave - hailing from Heverlee's spiritual home.

Music fans will be able to redeem a free pint upon entry to the mixer by scanning a QR code from posters for the event dotted around the city.

Hazel Alexander, Brand Manager at Heverlee, said: “Our mission as a brand is to encourage discovery – whether that’s trying an interesting new pilsner, or delving into a new musical genre. The Heverlee Mixer embodies this mindset.

“Together with Clyde Built Radio, we wanted to put on a string of events that allowed music and beer fans to enjoy a diverse and original array of artists, along with a quality pint. And, to ensure that this discovery goes beyond the four walls of the bar, we partnered with Rubadub to sell records from emerging artists.”

Andrew Thomson, Founder of Clyde Built Radio, added: “It was a real pleasure helping to curate artists for the Heverlee Mixer. The Scottish music scene is vibrant and full of outstanding artists, so we’re really excited to get the events underway.

“We’ve got a solid variety of our favourite DJ's, record shops and collectives playing across different genres each evening at Stereo – so I’d encourage any music fans in the area to get themselves along!”

The Glasgow event in Stereo will run from October 19 until – Sunday 23 from 6pm til close on weekdays and 2pm until close on weekends.
