ABRAZOS • LIVE at Cottiers Theatre • Monday 5 June

Join us Monday 5 June for a special LIVE gig between Paragon's Stride band and Rock DI from San Juan del Rio, Mexico - visiting Scotland for the very first time! 

Over the course of three years, what began as an online musical exchange has developed into a unique international collaboration between two incredible bands. The pair rehearsed, wrote, recorded, and released an epic rock album together - ABRAZOS (“Hugs” in Spanish) - reflecting on their lived experiences about disability, the pandemic and the longing to connect across distance. They launched the record with a livestream performance in October 2022, always hoping for the opportunity to play the songs together in person. And, here we are...

We couldn't be more excited to welcome Rock DI to the Dear Green Place on their first trip to Scotland - let's make it a belter!

The venue is Cottiers Theatre in Glasgow's West End and we'd love you to join us for a celebration of music, friendship, and inclusion. Everyone is welcome! 

Tickets are pay-what-you-decide: £3/£5/£7/or £9 per-person. We encourage everyone to pay only what they can afford and feel comfortable with. BOOK NOW, below👇
