About Stagboy - Voodoo single launch
Stagboy, a name that has been steadily carving out a formidable reputation in the UK’s alternative music scene, is poised to make their biggest statement yet with the launch of “Voodoo.” Originating from the gritty, creative underbelly of Glasgow itself, the band burst onto the scene five years ago with their debut EP, “Echoes in the Grey,” quickly gaining traction for their atmospheric soundscapes and poignant, often brooding lyrics. Their style seamlessly blends post-punk energy with indie-rock introspection, creating a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly original.
Known for their electrifying live performances, Stagboy comprises lead vocalist and lyricist Alistair “Stag” MacLeod, whose haunting baritone is instantly recognisable; guitarist Isla Graham, whose intricate riffs and ambient textures define their sound; bassist Rory Campbell, providing the driving, often hypnotic rhythm; and drummer Callum Reid, whose precise yet powerful beats anchor their dynamic compositions. Previous fan favourites like “Ghost Lights” and “Crimson Tide” have showcased their ability to craft emotionally resonant tracks that linger long after the final note. “Voodoo” promises to delve into a darker, more experimental territory, hinting at a new evolution in their artistic journey.

The venue itself boasts a rich history, having evolved from industrial origins into a celebrated space for live music, art installations, and spoken word performances. Its raw, industrial aesthetic, complete with exposed brickwork and low lighting, creates an atmosphere that is both edgy and inviting.
