Description
TariboWest started out as monthly night in Bar Bloc which sought to bring the foremost post/math bands to Glasgow. They also tend to stray out of my main remit and put on the occasional tech-metal night as well. Since starting it has grown TariboWest into a tour booking service as well as a small management company to work with bands who they love. Since last month (Feb 15) they have also taken up residence in Broadcast in Glasgow, booking gigs alongside Black Sheep, a mysterious entity who they will not discuss to maintain that sweet secrecy.
Alumni
