Having recently almost doubled the event line-up now seems like an excellent time to report on Pop! South's 2016 weekender at Glasgow's Glad Cafe.

Alongside the previously announced likes of TRUST FUND, The School, MJ Hibbett & The Validators, Milky Wimpshake and Breakfast MUFF (last enjoyed by us supporting The Spook School at their album launch) you can now also get your indie kicks from such luminaries as Duglas T. Stewart, Chorusgirl, The Catenary Wires, Pete Astor and a load more.

Tickets for the 12 - 14 February event are only £22 and can be obtained from here, along with further details of the event and this year's charitable connection.

Now that the dreary old festive season's out of the way it's time to get thinking about the festival season (which, if you play your cards right, can last the other 11 months of the year). Here at Musos' Guide the first event to excite us, in what promises to be a packed year for such things, is the 5th iteration of Hamburg's Garageville. A relatively small event as such things go it does though offer up a boat cruise disco on the mighty Elbe river on its third day. Small ones are more juicy anyway.

Over the weekend of 8-10 April then, over two venues (the Hafenklang & the Molotow MusikClub), you can expect to see the likes of the fantastic Strollers, King Salami & The Cumberland 3, Norway's Scumbugs, Germany's own Trash Templars and a host more.

Weekend tickets are 32 euros (boat ticket extra) and information on obtaining those as well as suggested places to stay, record stores to vist etc. can be found here.
