Glasgow, Scotland, has one of the most exciting music scenes on the planet. We’ve grouped together six phenomenal independent bands from the city to share with you, and we hope you’ll help us support the Glasgow Foodbanks just in time for Christmas.

The Good Pack is a place to discover new music and support important causes at the same time. For 10 days, from December 14 to 24, pay whatever you think is fair to get a high-quality mp3 collection of the albums (at 320 kbps). If you pay at least $6, you’ll also unlock the collection as lossless FLAC files in addition to the mp3s.

The bands in this collection:

Algernon Doll

Three Blind Wolves

Carson Wells

Poor Things

Pronto Mama

BAD LUCK

Click on any album cover above to hear all the music and learn more about the bands.

40 percent of whatever you pay will go to the Glasgow Northwest and Southeast Foodbanks to help their mission of supplying meals to Glasgow’s hungry.

When you get the Good Pack, you’ll receive an email with a link to download the collection. The files will be ready to play on your computer, your phone, or any other music-listening apparatus — all with zero restrictions and no annoying DRM.

60 percent of your chosen sales price is split by the musical artists and 10 percent goes to the Good Pack to cover operational costs. While we normally reserve 30 percent for our sponsored nonprofit, Carson Wells has offered to contribute their share to the foodbanks, and so we’re proud to be sharing 40 percent of sales with them. You can also find information on how to support the artists and the foodbanks directly on each info page.

Thanks for checking out the Good Pack. Sign up for our email list and follow us on social media to know when we launch our next collection of great independent music.

PoorThings

Poor Things just make really fun music. This Glasgow three-piece have nailed down a DIY garage pop sound reminiscent of the best basement shows of times past. Spend a little time with that and these other 10 songs and you’ll be properly hooked. With a clear 90’s punk influence in the stroppy droning tones of the vocals and tumbling layered melodies, it is no surprise that the band are 90’s kids which have been deeply impacted by that era; and are all the better for it.”

Album-PoorThingsS

The musical artists split 60% of every Good Pack sale. You can also support Poor Things directly onBandcamp, where their album is available on CD.
