Anthems of the City is a small-media-large concept which had its first trial at the 2011 Merchant City Festival, for Glasgow Life. A series of sessions celebrated historic rock and pop albums inspired and influenced by Glasgow, allowing the audience to enjoy each recording in full via state-of-the-art audio equipment, followed by discussion and Q&A with the artists behind the album.
The live site can be visited here.
